Arsenal 1-1 Sheffield United: Match Report, 18/01/2020

Gabriel Martinelli seized his chance to shine with a goal on Saturday, but Sheffield United earned a 1-1 draw at Emirates with a strike from John Fleck.

Lys Mousset, who scored the winner against Arsenal at Bramall Lane back in October, had two presentable chances within the first 10 minutes but headed both over the bar.

Martinelli, scored the goal from close range late in the first half after a whipped-in cross from Bukayo Saka.

John Fleck took advantage of some static defending when he rattled in his fifth league goal of the season to clinch his side a share of the points.
