Arsenal continues its fine run in the Europa League as Teenage striker Gabriel Martinelli scored two goals and set up another in a 4-0 over Standard Liege at the Emirates Stadium on Thursday night.

18-year-old Brazilian’s first and second goals while team-mate Joe Willock, 20, made it 3-0 before half-time.

Martinelli, who joined for £6m this summer, later set up Dani Ceballos for his first Arsenal goal.

Arsenal sit top of Group F with two wins from two games.

Man United Struggle Continues

Manchester United put in a “good performance” and were denied a “nailed-on penalty” in their Europa League draw with AZ Alkmaar, says boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

United failed to have a single shot on target in an uninspired showing and have now failed to win in their past 10 away games.

But Solskjaer saw the game positively and focused on a penalty he felt his side should have had when Stijn Wuytens brought down Marcus Rashford with 10 minutes to go. The referee did not award it and the video assistant referee system is not in use in the Europa League group stage.

United have not won an away game since beating Paris St-Germain in their famous Champions League win in March.
