Analysis: Southampton 0-1 Arsenal

There was, on paper, very little to play for at St Mary's.

While five teams were fighting it out for three Champions League places, Arsenal had secured their spot with a week to spare by beating Newcastle at Emirates Stadium last Sunday.

Only a major swing in goal difference would have seen them surrender second place to Manchester City but with Southampton heading into the game having scored 25 goals in 37 matches, and Arsenal keeper David Raya looking to retain the golden glove for most clean sheets, such a result was unlikely.

And after conceding on Sunday, Raya shared the award with Nottingham Forest's Matz Sels, who also kept 13 clean sheets.

The result does nothing to alter either sides' league position, with Arsenal finishing the season in second place and already relegated Southampton bowing out at the bottom.
