Arsenal’s English midfielder Joe Willock is mobbed by teammates after scoring the second goal during the English Premier League football match between Southampton and Arsenal at St Mary’s Stadium in Southampton, southern England on June 25, 2020. Andrew Matthews / POOL / AFPArsenal kept alive their hopes of qualifying for Europe as Eddie Nketiah punished a howler from Southampton goalkeeper Alex McCarthy to inspire a much-needed 2-0 win on Thursday.
Arsenal had suffered two successive defeats following the Premier League restart after the coronavirus hiatus. Arsenal had kicked off with 40 points, which ranked as their joint lowest tally after 30 games of a Premier League campaign. Aubameyang should have put Arsenal ahead early on but, after racing into the penalty area, the Gabon forward’s close-range shot cannoned off the bar and bounced clear.
It was the 21-year-old’s second Premier League goal of the season and his fourth in all competitions for the Gunners after a loan spell at Leeds. But Stephens saw red for his foul on Aubameyang on the edge of the area and Willock slotted home from close-range to seal the points in the 87th minute.
