Wolverhampton Wanderers manager Gary O'Neil was left fuming at his defenders for failing to keep Bukayo Saka silent.
He said: “Punished by the couple of moments for the goal, the first one I’m really disappointed with because it’s a situation which we worked hard on, we knew would arise and we got so many bodies around Saka.
“All the bodies we’d worked on getting around him and there’s a couple of ricochets in there, Daws [Dawson] is maybe a little bit hesitant in the penalty area which you can understand these days with the amount of penalties that’s been given.
“So Daws was slightly hesitant, and the way Saka managed to wriggle through so many of our bodies in a situation we’d prepped for was disappointing.”
Saka opened the scoring for the Gunners with Martin Odegaard also on target in a 2-1 win. The Gunners return to action on Tuesday against Luton Town.
