Arsenal snatched a late win against Olympiacos to take the upper hand in their Europa League round of 32 tie.

The French striker tapped-in Bukayo Saka's cross after 81 minutes to secure the away goal in a game of few chances.

Lacazette, who ended his nine-goal drought against Newcastle last weekend, had struggled earlier in the match, spurning a great chance from eight yards out in the first half.

However, the crucial late goal sees the Gunners head back to north London with a firm advantage, while Mikel Arteta's unbeaten start to 2020 remains intact.
