Bukayo Saka inspired Arsenal to victory over Southampton as they came from behind to win 3-1 at the Emirates Stadium.

Arsenal were frustrated by the dogged visitors in the first half and fell behind soon after the break when substitute Cameron Archer found the bottom corner following a Saints counter.

The goal sparked an immediate Arsenal response, though, as Saka stole possession and fed Kai Havertz, who guided a fine finish past Aaron Ramsdale to score for a seventh consecutive home game.

The turnaround was complete when Saka’s diagonal cross was converted by substitute Gabriel Martinelli, with the goal surviving a VAR check for offside, before Saka pounced on another Saints error to convert Arsenal’s third and wrap up the victory.

Arsenal had to come through more nervy moments between their second and third goals, with Tyler Dibling clipping the upright and a David Raya punch from a corner bouncing back onto the bar.

But Mikel Arteta’s side ran out deserved winners in the end, having racked up 29 shots, the victory keeping them a point behind leaders Liverpool and ensuring Southampton’s wait for a first win of the season continues.
