GALLERY: Villa host the Gunners

Aston Villa played out a thrilling game against Arsenal at Villa Park on Saturday.

With Tom Hanks watching on, Ollie Watkins fired the hosts ahead early on before they were pegged back by Bukayo Saka.

Philippe Coutinho’s first goal of the season restored Villa’s lead before the Gunners once again struck back via Oleksandr Zinchenko.

And just as it looked as though the points would be shared, Jorginho's shot cannoned off the bar and into the goal off the back of the unfortunate Emi Martinez in injury time. 

Gabriel Martinelli added a fourth with the final kick of the game.
