Arsenal fans have shown there will be no sympathy towards Emiliano Martinez after his own goal earned them a vital victory.
The Gunners faced off against their former keeper on Saturday in desperate need of all three points. Mikel Arteta’s side took on Aston Villa after a run of three Premier League games without a win had seen them surrender their place at the summit.
But away from the obvious storylines, it was a fixture filled with intrigue with Unai Emery in the home side’s dugout and Martinez in their goal. Emery, who was replaced by Arteta in 2019, had his charges raring to go and they took the lead in the opening stages through Ollie Watkins.
