Despite their lowly status, Southampton were the better side and peppered the Arsenal goal with 21 shots to the home side's 12. AdvertisementStuart Armstrong flashed an early Southampton opportunity narrowly wide but Arsenal didn't heed the warning and were caught out by a ninth-minute free-kick. That prompted boos from some home fans but the mood was in no way lightened by Southampton's James Ward-Prowse firing the game's next chance straight at Leno. Southampton then survived a VAR check for a penalty when Armstrong stuck up a hand to stop the ball smashing him in the face. Ward-Prowse's first effort was saved by Leno, but he made it 2-1 on the rebound.
