Arsenal down against Aston villa in the start of the EPL!



Big shock to the Arsenal fans that their team lost against Aston Villa at the start of the English Premier League.

Christian Benteke struck twice as Aston Villa came from behind to beat 10-man Arsenal 3-1 at the Emirates.

Olivier Giroud gave the Gunners the perfect start when he put them ahead on six minutes before the Belgian equalised with a header after his penalty had been saved by Wojciech Szczesny.

Benteke then gave Paul Lambert’s side the lead with another penalty just after the hour mark before Arsenal defender Laurent Koscielny was sent off for a second bookable offence.

Antonio Luna struck five minutes from time to seal the win which ensured the dream start for Villa - but a nightmare opening for their hosts.
