WATCH: Laurent Koscielny’s overhead kick makes Arsenal level

Not a bad way to celebrate your birthday.

Arsenal’s Laurent Koscielny saved one of his best goals for his 31st birthday as his overhead kick in the 29th minute put Arsenal level 1-1 with Southampton. This was welcome news for Arsenal after goalkeeper Petr Cech had an unfortunate own goal off a bad bounce.

Arsenal has a rather restless crowd at the Emirates Stadium and are looking for a win to get things back on track. Southampton is looking for their first win of the season and the chance to move up the Premier League table.
