LACAZETTE, who came off the bench in the 79th minute was able to secure a point in the last minute of added time to end the match 2-2 at the Emirates stadium.

Speaking to BT sport after the game, Sambi Lokonga revealed the impact the Frenchman had on the side.

“He backed me, he backed the team. I think when we come on we have to bring this mentality that Lacazette did.

“I think he brought fire when he came on and that’s what we need to try to do every time somebody comes on.”

Arsenal will again be back in action on Friday as they host Aston Villa at the Emirates stadium by 8pm.
