Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang scores and Eddie Nketiah nets hat-trick as Arsenal thrash Charlton in behind closed doors friendly at Emirates... before captain moves to the stands to poke fun at Bukayo Saka's warm up

Arsenal beat Championship side Charlton 6-0 in a friendly behind closed doors at the Emirates Stadium as Eddie Nketiah scored a second half hat-trick.

Alexandre Lacazette, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Joe Willock were also among the scorers as Mikel Arteta's side returned to their home ground for the first time since the coronavirus pandemic caused for the league's suspension.

Nketiah will be looking to force his way into the Arsenal side with his three goals, after an unproductive loan move to Leeds United during the first half of the season.
