Arsenal 1-1 Brighton

‣ 1-0: Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (9')

Unai Emery's side took the lead in the opening ten minutes after referee Anthony Taylor awarded a penalty for a challenge on Nacho Monreal, which was converted by Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.

Arsenal dominated much of the proceedings, however Brighton looked threatening themselves and were rewarded just after the hour mark as Granit Xhaka tugged at Solly March's shirt inside the Arsenal box.
