Arsenal have Edinson Cavani to thank for their draw against Paris St-Germain, says John Hartson

Former Celtic striker John Hartson believes PSG striker Edinson Cavani's profligacy in front of goal saved Arsenal from a hammering in Paris.

Cavani's glancing header in the opening minute gave the home side an early lead but the Uruguayan striker then blew a host of goal-scoring opportunities.

Cavani's wastefulness was duly punished with Alexis Sanchez's late strike salvaging a point for Arsene Wenger's men.

‘The man Arsenal have to thank on the night was Cavani,’ Hartson told BT Sport.
