Cardiff City vs Arsenal highlights: Laca, Aubameyang score in Arsenal win

TheSportsRush brings Cardiff City vs Arsenal highlights, as Arsenal beat Cardiff City 3-2 to head into international break with three points.

Lacazette’s late winner proved to be the difference between the two sides at the Cardiff City Stadium, as Arsenal scraped out with three points.

Arsenal took the lead twice in the match before the winner, but conceded sloppily soon after. Shkodran Mustafi opened the scoring in the match in the 11th minute of the match.

Unai Emery’s side weren’t convincing throughout the first half, and a mistake from Granit Xhaka gave way for Cardiff City to pull out an equaliser seconds before the end of first half.

Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang ended his goal-drought in the new season in the 62nd minute of the match, before the lead was cancelled out again by Danny Ward 8 minutes later. Lacazette scored in the 81st minute to win the match for Arsenal.

Here are some of the tweets from the match:

Most people: ‘It’s almost half time. Let’s clear the ball away from the danger zone and get in ahead.’

Xhaka: ‘Let me just try this impossible 30-yard cross field pass that I definitely need to make’

Mustafi, whose family originally from Macedonia near the Albanian border, celebrated that goal from Xhaka assist with the double-headed eagle symbol.

Xhaka was fined for the same celebration during the World Cup win over Serbia.

Why Can’t Arsenal Play Without Conceding?

Arsenal will never be the same again you actually wouldn’t believe our club went a whole season without losing

I reckon the Derby County 07/08 team would score against Arsenal.

Manchester United fans are too scared to laugh at Arsenal atm, since that could backfire massively later today

Arsenal, barring any extraordinary change, will finish outside the top 4 again.

I stick up for Xhaka every week but there’s no defending that ridiculous cross field pass, absolute stupidity, once the ball goes out wide we just allow them to put crosses in, we have given them the lift they needed, f**king pissed me right off!!!
