Arsenal 2 Swansea City 1
Swansea drew first blood when Tammy Abraham took advantage of Laurent Koscielny’s slip to play in Sam Clucas for a low finish past Petr Cech.
Our first-half performance was sluggish by recent standards, with lots of possession but not much penetration. A brilliant tip-over from Lukasz Fabianski to deny Alexis was the closest we came to a goal.
But we raised the tempo after the break and turned the game on its head.
The equaliser came when Alex Lacazette showed strength to keep a move alive and then flair to find Mesut Ozil with a backheel inside the box. The German’s shot hit a defender but the ball rolled kindly for Sead Kolasinac, who flashed a first-time shot inside the far post.
The Bosnian turned provider eight minutes later. Granit Xhaka’s raking pass picked out Kolasinac and he picked out Ramsey’s run for another first-time finish past former Gunner Fabianski. It was Ramsey’s 50th goal for us.
