Bernd Leno Says He Would Make Same Decision Again After Southampton Error

Arsenal goalkeeper Bernd Leno has said he has no regrets over his mistake against Southampton in the Premier League on Sunday and said he would make the same decision again.

The Gunners lost the match 3-2, with Charlie Austin scoring the winning goal for Saints after an error from the German. Leno flapped at Shane Long's cross, allowing the Southampton striker to head into an unguarded net.

However, when quizzed about his involvement in the goal, the Arsenal stopper didn't seem too downbeat about his contribution, per the Evening Standard (h/t Thomas Bristow of the Daily Mirror):

"The last goal was a little bit unlucky for me because I wanted to get the cross because Austin was completely free and it was so close.
