Aubameyang-Lacazette handshake: Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang scored the fourth goal in an emphatic victory for Arsenal.
Arsenal returned to winning ways after a fairly disappointing run of games with a 4-1 victory over Fulham.
Xhaka, Lacazette, Ramsey and Aubameyang were all on target as Arsenal completed a routing of Claudio Ranieri’s side at the Emirates Stadium. With this win, Arsenal are now only two points behind fourth-placed Chelsea, who face Southampton tomorrow.
Aubameyang scored his 16th goal across all competitions this season, and 14th in the league, which took him ahead of Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah in top goalscorers’ table in the English top flight.
The handshake between Lacazette and Aubameyang has become a custom ever since the Gabon striker joined Arsenal in January last year, and it continued even when Lacazette was substituted in the second half.
Aubameyang-Lacazette handshake:
Lacazette scored the second goal of the match for Arsenal in a brilliant link-up play, but was substituted minutes after netting the ball in for Aaron Ramsey. The Welshman was also among the goals, and Ramsey’s goal was followed by a thundering strike from Aubameyang.
In a heartwarming moment for Arsenal fans, Aubameyang came all the way to the touchline and celebrated with Alexandre Lacazette, who came off the bench.
Here’s the video:
The Arsenal fans were justifiably pleased with the ‘bromance’ between the two.
