(Dan Tri) – Scoring two goals in the last two minutes of official play, Arsenal achieved a 3-3 draw at home against bottom team Southampton in the early match of round 32 of the Premier League.
Taking on bottom team Southampton in the early round of 32 match is a great opportunity for Arsenal to increase their score with second-place team Man City before the two teams meet in the middle of next week (Man City will not play in the Premier League this weekend due to competition).
In the last two matches, Arsenal only got one point after leading by two goals.

Southampton is desperate for points to compete for relegation, so even though they were guests at the Emirates, the away team quickly rushed to attack right after the opening whistle.
The early goal gave the away team players more confidence.

Playing at home, being behind by two goals after just over ten minutes of play made Arsenal `angry`.
Hope for a point or even victory opens up for Arsenal when the gap is only one goal and the match time is still very long.

A surprise happened in the 67th minute, starting from a corner kick from the away team, Bella-Kotchap jumped high and headed the ball towards the far post, just in range for Caleta-Car to run in and score the goal to increase the score to 3.
Facing defeat at home, Arsenal must try to attack.
In the 90th minute, Bazunu pushed the opponent’s shot, causing the ball to fly out into the center of the penalty area. Saka quickly scored the goal while the opponent’s goalkeeper had not yet stood up.
