Arsenal 2 Southampton 0 : Iwobi Continues Brilliant Form But Limps Off Injured
Published: February 24, 2019
Alex Iwobi made his 24th Premier League appearance of the season as Arsenal beat Southampton 2-0 at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
The Super Eagle was part of an attacking trident of Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Alexandre Lacazette who wasted little time in picking apart the visitors.
The winger noticeably got into good positions and linked well with his fellow attackers, a perfect reason why Unai Emery had preferred him and always given him the nod in the attack.
As per stats from Whoscored, Iwobi who accumulated a 7.00 ratings from the game made one dribble, one tackle, struck a shot once and had a pass success rate of 83 percent before making way for Pierre Emerick Aubameyang in the 75th minute after picking up an injury.
Lacazette and Mkhitaryan struck first half goals for the Gunners to ensure the victory.
