Video Highlights – Orlando 1-3 Arsenal – Gunners leave it late but come through in end

Arsenal continued their pre-season with a tough game against a very fit Orlando side, and of course Arteta used many different players again.

A thunderstorm delayed the game for an hour but we got off to a quick start as Martinelli put us ahead after just 5 minutes.

Orlando didn’t roll over though and got an equaliser on the half-hour mark through Torres.

It was a toogh game and it wasn’t until the 66th minute that we regained the lead through Nketiah, and Reiss Nelson put the game to bed ten minutes before the end.

Enjoy!

  1. Aye a highlight reel that has more fouls than decent play , but it shows the guys are ready to fight.
    Still a good result another one under the belt and no injurys as far as ive heard , so on to the next 1.

  2. Disjointed and scrappy stuff, that offering wouldn’t win many hearts and minds in the States.

    It looked like an Astroturf surface that had cut up badly in some areas of the pitch. That stuff causes more ACL injuries than real grass, so maybe just be thankful if we’ve avoided any injuries.

    The Americans don’t do football highlights well, do they?

  3. A good win and a decent performance. These games in America tend to be tricky and also the good thing is that there are no injuries. Nice to see Nelson on the scoresheet after a long time. If both Pepe and Nelson are retained in the final Arsenal squad for the season, I think we have great firepower going forward.
