Report: Arsenal 1-1 Bournemouth (5-4 pens)

Our opening game of our 2024 US Tour ended in a draw over 90 minutes followed by a shoot-out win against Bournemouth in Los Angeles.

Fabio Vieira drilled home a fine volley in the 17th minute to hand us a half-time advantage, but Antoine Semenyo’s deflected shot brought the Cherries level on 72 minutes.

However a good number of our travelling squad got some useful minutes under their belts, as they build up for our game against Manchester United in SoFi Stadium on Saturday. We then ran out 5-4 winners on penalties with Karl Hein the hero, denying the Cherries twice, before Jakub Kiwior stepped up to convert our sixth penalty.
