Unai Emery’s men are ready for the start of the 2018/19 campaign

Reiss Nelson and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang got the goals as the Gunners emerged victorious in Sweden.
Aubameyang found the net at the Friends Arena
Unai Emery’s men scored in each half, with Nelson netting a rebound after just 18 minutes.
The youngster followed in after Alex Iwobi’s effort hit the post and placed the ball home when it bounced back to him.
Aubameyang doubled his side’s lead in the 64th minute with his strike landing in the bottom corner of the Lazio net.
The English side then saw out the win as summer signings Lucas Torreira and Stephan Lichtsteiner made their debuts.
