The right back made up for a questionable play early on by turning provider on his team’s opening goal
It didn’t get off to the best of starts for DeAndre Yedlin on Sunday against Arsenal, but it couldn’t have finished much better.
Yedlin’s positioning probably could have been better on the Gunners early opener to put Newcastle down 1-0. He was ahead of his defensive line, providing more space for Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to run into. While Yedlin’s pace often can correct those mistakes, it could not against the speedy Aubameyang, who was able to find Alexandre Lacazette for the opener.
