Premier League: Arsenal held at Saints, Villa get new manager bounce against Brentford

thenationalnews.com

Arsenal failed to register maximum points for only the second time this season as they were held to a 1-1 draw by battling Southampton at St Mary’s.

The Gunners started brightly and Granit Xhaka opened their account with a crisp volley after 11 minutes. But the Saints managed to stay in the game and grabbed a beautifully worked equaliser on the break in the 65th minute.

Stuart Armstrong finished off a sweeping team move to extend the Saints' unbeaten run to three matches and take some of the pressure off manager Ralph Hasenhuttl.

The result leaves Mikel Arteta's men two points clear at the top of the table, while Saints lie in 15th place. Meanwhile, Aston Villa benefited from new manager bounce as they beat Brentford 4-0 at Villa Park.
