Welbeck’s double for Arsenal costs Southampton vital points

Danny Welbeck’s second goal of the game gave Arsenal a 3-2 win on Sunday and cost Southampton a draw they would have deserved in their struggle against relegation from the Premier League.
Southampton’s defeat kept them in the bottom three, three points behind Crystal Palace but with a game in hand.
Shane Long gave them the lead after 17 minutes, nipping in ahead of defender Shkodran Mustafi.
Arsenal equalised 11 minutes later through Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, playing a one-two with Danny Welbeck.
Welbeck then cut inside onto Alex Iwobi’s pass to give Arsene Wenger’s side a barely-deserved halftime lead.
Substitute Charlie Austin equalised barely a minute after coming on, but with nine minutes left, Welbec headed in Alex Iwobi’s cross.
In a wild last few minutes Mohamed Elneny and Southampton’s Jack Stephens were sent off in separate incidents.
