The Story in 60 Seconds

Former Arsenal midfielder Ray Parlour stated that winger Noni Madueke has to do better defensively after failing to track back during Arsenal's 2-1 victory over Leeds United at the Emirates Stadium. Leeds had opened the scoring through James Justin in the 55th minute before goals from Riccardo Calafiori and Bruno Guimaraes secured the three points for Mikel Arteta's side.
