Jorginho as a savior

Officially, he didn't score the goal.

But it's just like.

In injury time, as Arsenal failed to force the lock on Aston Villa, Jorginho unleashed a powerful right-footed shot at the entrance to the penalty area.

His attempt hit the crossbar...before bouncing off Emiliano Martinez's head and entering the goal.

An achievement that allowed Arsenal to snatch the victory (2-4) and to revive after his bad pass.

First goal for Philippe Coutinho

Established for the first time by Unai Emery in the Premier League, Philippe Coutinho lived up to expectations.

The Brazilian, who played in support of Ollie Watkins, restored the advantage to the Villans in the first half with a fine shot from the right foot.

For a long time, his goal - the first of the season - gave his team a positive result.

But it was without counting on the selflessness of Arsenal who knew how to make the difference in additional time.

Emiliano Martinez's winning goal

It's bad luck's fault.

In a meeting where he was not greatly solicited, Emiliano Martinez made a fatal error at the very end of the match.

As his side held the point for the draw, he saw Jorginho's powerful shot hit his upper post...and then bounce off his head before entering the back of the net.

A gag goal that gave the victory to the Gunners.

Leandro Trossard too little in sight

Preferred to Gabriel Martinelli on the left side of the Arsenal attack, Leandro Trossard did not convince.

The Belgian proved to be too little enterprising and too fair technically to make a difference.

He was replaced in the 68th minute by the Brazilian who also scored his team's fourth and final goal in empty nets.
