Arsenal Player Ratings: Aston Villa (H)

10-man Arsenal returned to winning ways after beating Aston Villa 3-2 at the Emirates in an entertaining Premier League game.

John McGinn and Wesley scored the goals for the away side, while the Gunners got their goals through Nicolas Pepe, Calum Chambers and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.

After an open start to the game, Villa took the lead in the middle of the first half when Anwar El Ghazi whipped in a dangerous cross for McGinn to tap home unmarked in the box.

On the stroke of half-time, Arsenal went down to 10 men after Ainsley Maitland-Niles made a needless tackle to earn his second yellow card.

They equalised through Pepe’s penalty in the 59th minute but were pegged back immediately with a good finish from Wesley.

The Gunners’ second equaliser came in the 81st minute after Tyrone Mings’ erroneous header fell kindly for Chambers to bundle home.

Three minutes later, Aubameyang won them the game with an accurate free-kick.
