By Promise Amadi
Arsenal midfielder, Alex Iwobi disclose that lacked concentration against Southampton cause their shocking 3-2 loss on Sunday Premier League match.
 
The defeat ended Arsenal’s 22 games unbeaten run.

Two goals from Henrikh Mkhitaryan saw Arsenal twice draw level after Ings’ goals, once in the first half and once at the start of the second.
 
However, Charlie Austin’s late goal ensured Ralph Hasenhuttl picked up a crucial first win as Saints boss.
 
Speaking after the clash, Iwobi said: “We weren’t concentrated through the 90 minutes,”
 
“There were spells where we didn’t defend well as a group.
 
“Southampton deserve credit.
 
“They had a game plan and they stuck to it, but it’s disappointing by us.
 
“We’re frustrated the unbeaten run is over.
 
We had chances to win the game.
 
“But we should give ourselves some credit for going on the run.
 
“Now we have to keep going and try to go on another run.”
