Arsenal kick-started their Premier League campaign with a 2-1 win at Crystal Palace.
Olivier Giroud set them on the way with a wonderfully athletic finish from Mesut Ozil’s cross but Joel Ward drew palace level with only his second Premier League goal.
It looked like Arsenal’s defensive frailties may return to haunt them after a 2-0 defeat to West Ham in the opening weekend but an unfortunate Damien Delaney own goal gave Arsenal the spoils.
The win, Arsenal’s first following their opening day loss, means they climb off the bottom of the table whilst Palace remain sixth.
