Dominant Arsenal Rout Aston Villa

Arsenal romped to a an emphatic win over struggling Aston Villa to climb up to fifth above Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League table on Sunday.


Olivier Giroud put the Gunners in front within 8 minutes of kickoff, when he collected Ozil’s a clever flick and poked in.


Arsenal could have been 2-0 up at the break after a dominant first-half performance, but a Santi Carzola left-foot strike came off the woodwork.

The hosts were celebrating a second goal when Ozil coolly slotted into the far corner from Giruod’s crossfield pass. Theo Walcott, on his first league start in 13 months, combined with Carzola to place the ball beyond goalkeeper Brad Guzan.

Giroud hit the bar with a header before Cazorla converted from the penalty spot after Chuba Akpom was impeded by Guzan in the area.


Hector Bellerin completed the rout in injury time, slotting home from range after teeing up with Carzola on the edge of the area.
