“What he did yesterday was last done by Christiano Ronaldo…At some point I went to touch him to confirm it’s not Ronaldo I was playing with”: Calafiori says he can’t still believe what ONE Arsenal player did against Southampton yesterday
Arsenal continued their unbeaten start to the campaign with a 3-1 comeback win over Southampton in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon.
The Gunners were the dominant side in the opening half of the encounter, but they lacked the cutting edge in the final third with just one shot on target.
The Saints took a surprise lead through Cameron Archer in the 55th minute. This provided a wake-up call for Mikel Arteta’s side and they responded brilliantly.
Kai Havertz levelled the scores within three minutes. Gabriel Martinelli made it 2-1 in the 68th minute with a wonderful side-foot volley from a Bukayo Saka cross.
Saka put the game beyond doubt with the club’s third goal before stoppage time.
Martinelli was obviously delighted with the result and shortly after the game, he wrote on Instagram: “Winning energy heading into the international break.”
