Arsenal topped their Europa League group pretty easily and Lacazette and Aubameyang’s work was not needed too much.However, if it wasn’t for Aubameyang’s double against Vorskla Poltava and Lacazette’s winner against Qarabag on matchdays one and six respectively then they could have ended up qualifying in second and thus being drawn against a trickier opponent in the knockout stages…

The Gunners suffered an embarrassing loss at minnows BATE Borisov, going down to a 1-0 defeat which actually saw Lacazette receive a red card in Belarus.Thankfully for Arsenal, they were able to turn it around in London, winning 3-0 thanks to goals from Shkodran Mustafi and Sokratis Papastathopoulos as well as Zakhar Volkov’s own goal.
