The 10-man Arsenal twice came from a goal down to snatch victory against Aston Villa at The Emirates.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang fired home a late winner to move the Gunners into the Premier League’s top four.

Villa’s John McGinn put the newly promoted side 1-0 up 20 minutes, before Ainsley Maitland-Niles was shown a second yellow card on the brink of half-time.

Unai Emery’s looked on for a recovery when Nicolas Pepe converted from the penalty spot to equalise, but the Gunners’ joy was short-lived as Villa immediately restored their lead through Wesley, the Brazilian sweeping in a Jack Grealish pass.

Calum Chambers dragged Arsenal back on to level terms in the 81st minute by latching on to a loose ball and rifling home.

And three minutes later, Aubameyang curled home his seventh goal of the season to complete a remarkable turnaround for the North Londoners.
