EPL: Aubameyang own goal as Burnley beat 10-man Arsenal

Arsenal slumped to a fourth consecutive home league defeat for the first time since 1959 after Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s own goal handed Burnley a 1-0 on Sunday. The Gunners were again undone by indiscipline as Granit Xhaka’s needless sending-off just before the hour mark turned the game in Burnley’s favour. Aubameyang is still waiting for his first league goal from open play since signing a lucrative new three-year contract in September, but scored at the wrong end when he flicked in Ashley Westwood’s corner 17 minutes from time. Victory takes Burnley out of the relegation zone, while Arsenal creep ever closer to the drop zone as they sit 15th, just five points above the bottom three.
