Here are the latest Arsenal highlights as Mikel Arteta’s men recorded a pre-season victory against Italian giants AC Milan.
Bukayo Saka’s second-half strike was enough for the Gunners to secure the win in the opening match of their pre-season tour.
The winger met a fantastic ball from Jakub Kiwior to score the game’s only goal.
With three new signings making their first appearances in Arsenal colours, Arsenal started strong in Singapore.
Saka and Ben White linked well down the right-hand side. But the first meaningful chance fell to Ethan Nwaneri.
Taking a ball from Christian Norgaard, he opened up space to shoot before drilling a low effort that forced a good stop from Pietro Terracciano.
AC Milan’s best chance of the half came as Alexis Saelemaekers fired well over from the edge of the box.
After the break, new signings Martin Zubimendi and Kepa Arrizabalaga came on to the field.
But it was fellow substitute Kiwior’s first-time cross that beat everyone, finding Saka at the far post.
The England star cooly slotted home to give the Gunners the lead. With no further scores, it finished 1-0 to Arsenal.

But at full time, both sides still took part in a penalty shootout.
The penalties finished 2-2 after the first five kicks, with Kepa making three saves.
In sudden death, Milan were victorious after Arsenal’s Marli Salmon failed to score.
Fixtures such as these are vital for players to get up to speed, something Arsenal will hope can help them to the Premier League title.
At the time of writing, football betting sites have the Gunners at 9/4, making them second favourites behind champions Liverpool.
