But it was their Brazilian centre-back who got all the attention after the match but for all the wrong reasons.

With Arsenal leading 1-0 in the second-half the footage starts with Luiz on the ball just inside his own half.

But the 33-year-old is quickly pressured by two Brentford players and as he tries to flick it over one of their heads, he is easily muscled off the ball and the Bees break.
