Cech: Arsenal will rely on Aubameyang and Lacazette to qualify for Champions League

Arsenal are benefitting from the qualities of strike partners Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette, says Petr Cech after the duo starred in Thursday’s 3-1 victory over Sevilla.

Goalkeeper Cech, playing in what was his last European home match of his career, had seen his goal breached by Mouctar Diakhaby after only 11 minutes into the first leg of their Europa League semi-final match in London.

Seven minutes later, the star duo ensured that they were level, with Aubameyang assisting Lacazette for a brilliant equaliser.
