Match report: Arsenal 0-0 Burnley
WHAT HAPPENED
Mikel Arteta was looking for a response from his side after our Carabao Cup semi-final defeat in midweek, but we found it tough going against an organised and disciplined Clarets team.
Aaron Ramsdale was the first of the two keepers to be called into action, making a smart save to turn away a Dwight McNeil cross that deflected towards goal, before Ben Mee hooked a shot from the resulting corner over the bar.
With the visitors getting men behind the ball in numbers, it was tough to find space to operate in the attacking third – and soon Alex Lacazette took matters into his own hand, beating two men and racing into the box, but he shot wide.
