Henrikh Mkhitaryan seals Arsenal’s victory over Watford with superb performance
London’s Arsenal ended a run of three successive Premier League defeats as they secured a fine victory over Watford today.
Shkodran Mustafi headed in Mesut Ozil’s left-wing free-kick to give the Gunners an eighth-minute lead, before Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang collected Armenian international Henrikh Mkhitaryan’s pass to add a second, BBC reported.
Watford had a chance to pull one back but Troy Deeney’s penalty was saved by Petr Cech, who secured the 200th Premier League clean sheet of his career.
Mkhitaryan sealed Arsenal’s victory, their first league win since beating Everton 5-1 on 3 February, with a shot from inside the penalty area following Aubameyang’s pass.
