# Arsenal Player Ratings: BATE Borisov (A)

Arsenal secured yet another three points in the Europa League against BATE Borisov.

The Gunners travelled to Belarus in the search of their second win in the group stages following a comprehensive home win against German side Cologne in the first game week.

Arsene Wenger named a much-changed side to the one that defeated West Brom 2-0 in the Premier League thanks to a brace from Alexandre Lacazette. However, this didn’t stop the Gunners from coming away with a comfortable win.

Theo Walcott scored Arsenal’s first from close range, before making it two shortly after, with some awful goalkeeping helping the England international to a brace.

Rob Holding managed to squirm one in relatively soon after too, before BATE pulled a goal back before half time.

Olivier Giroud was awarded a penalty after a tussle in the box, and despite Walcott being on a hat-trick, took the spot kick himself. He made it 4-1 to the visitors, before BATE netted what proved to merely be a consolation goal.

Here are our Arsenal player ratings from their 4-2 win at BATE Borisov.
