Ozil glad to be back in Premier League action for Arsenal but disappointed with Wolves draw

Mesut Ozil was glad to be back in action for Arsenal in the Premier League but disappointed his involvement couldn’t secure all three points for his team.

The Gunners ended up drawing 1-1 with Wolves, a result that sees them trail leaders Liverpool by 14 points in fifth place after 11 games.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang gave Arsenal the lead after 20 minutes but a late Raul Jimenez goal spoiled what could have been a dream return to the first XI for Ozil.

It was just the second Premier League start of the the season for the Germany international, but his second game in a week after he played in Wednesday’s Carabao Cup tie against Liverpool.
