Arsenal hit back to see off Southampton and keep the pace at the top

The latest sports news from The42.ie in 60 seconds

KAI HAVERTZ AND Gabriel Martinelli struck in 10 second-half minutes as Arsenal came from a goal down to secure a 3-1 win against Southampton.

Southampton almost hit back – striking David Raya’s woodwork twice in one minute – but Saka made sure of the points with two minutes remaining on another pivotal afternoon in north London. The Gunners remain level on points with rivals’ City, and one shy of leaders’ Liverpool. The ball fell to Declan Rice, who played in Gabriel Jesus. On his first Premier League start in an Arsenal shirt, Raheem Sterling was in the box and looking to pull the trigger but he was unable to get a shot away.

Arsenal had to wait until first-half injury time to record their opening attempt on Southampton’s goal. Ramsdale parried Thomas Partey’s strike, and Jan Bednarek was on hand to stop Sterling. Seventy per cent possession, 14 shots, and eight corners, but crucially no goals when the half-time whistle sounded.
