EPL: Lacazette’s Last Minutes Equaliser Helps Arsenal To 2-2 Draw

Arsenal needed an Alexandre Lacazette stoppage-time goal to get a 2-2 draw at the end of an unconvincing performance against struggling Southampton.

Southampton appeared to be coasting to a first Premier League victory in eight games through a James Ward-Prowse goal on his 250th appearance for Southampton.

This was after Lacazette had equalized to cancel Danny Ing’s effort in the 8th minute to make it one all.

The Frenchman again grabbed a last-gasp leveller (90+6) that was met by underwhelming celebrations in the home end after their team had been second best for large periods as the pressure intensifies on boss Unai Emery.

Relegation-threatened Saints, who registered 21 shots on goal, should have wrapped the points up in injury time but substitute Moussa Djenepo wasted two huge opportunities leaving Ralph Hasenhuttl’s men without a win in the Premier League in their last eight matches.
