Arsenal lost their final friendly against Barcelona.
Arsenal’s pre-season came to an end with a friendly defeat away to Barcelona.
The Gunners got off to a perfect start, with Pierre Emerick Aubameyang scoring the opening goal after just six minutes.
After that, defensive problems saw Arsenal fall to a 2-1 defeat.
A calamitous own goal from Ainsley Maitland Niles and a winner from Luis Suarez gave the home side the win.
Former Gunners striker Kevin Campbell gave his reaction after the defeat. He remarked on Arsenal’s worrying defence.
To be fair it would have been more of a surprise if Arsenal’s defencd had held up against Barcelona.
This was a final reminder, as if they needed it, that there needs to money spent on defenders before the transfer deadline.
