Friendly: Arsenal 6-0 Charlton - Match report

We returned to action with a 6-0 friendly victory over Charlton Athletic at Emirates Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

The match was played behind closed doors, with the officiating taken care of by the coaching staff of both teams.

We went in with a two-goal lead at the break against our Championship opponents, courtesy of strikes from Alex Lacazette and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.

Lacazette opened the scoring with a fierce strike from outside of the box, before a darting run from Aubameyang on the left flank ended with the Gabon international curling the ball inside the far post.
