It took Lacazette just eight minutes to make his mark in the game, as he showed great instincts to latch onto a through ball by Granit Xhaka before rounding Keylor Navas and shooting at goal.

His shot was blocked on the line by Nacho, but the referee correctly penalized the defender for handball and pointed to the spot.

Having won the penalty, the 28-year-old stepped up and took responsibility for dispatching it, sending the ball fortuitously in off the left hand post to put his side 1-0 up.

16 minutes later, he turned provider, as it was off his exquisite flick that Aubameyang scored Arsenal's second of the evening.

The French international was substituted after 74 minutes for Eddie Nketiah and he gave a complete striker's performance.

His goal on the night was his first he from four pre-season fixtures and Emery would be hoping he keeps up the form he showed against Real Madrid into the new campaign.
