An Arsenal analyst was kicked out of the Villa Park press box by a steward after the away team’s celebrations sparked fury from Aston Villa staff in the stands.
Arsenal scored twice in added time to secure a dramatic 4-2 win which sent them back to the top of the Premier League table in Saturday’s early kick-off. It looked to be heading for a draw, but Jorginho’s shot cannoned off the woodwork before hitting Emiliano Martinez to make it 3-2.
Gabriel Martinelli then scored into an empty net on the break after Martinez went up for a corner to seal the win and trigger a jubilant reaction from Mikel Arteta and his staff on the touchline. It also sparked some unsavoury scenes in the stands, where Arsenal and Villa’s analysts clashed in the press box.
