Arsenal beat Southampton to remain in hunt for fourth place in Premier League
Read Time:29 Second
Arsenal have remained in the hunt for a top-four place in the Premier League table with a 2-0 victory away at Southampton.
The Gunners realistically need to win each of their remaining fixtures to maintain hope of gatecrashing the Champions League places, but second-half efforts from Alexis Sanchez and Olivier Giroud ensured that they replaced Manchester United in fifth position.
After offering little threat against Liverpool on Sunday, Southampton were straight onto the offensive in front of their own supporters with Steven Davis and Ryan Bertrand both firing off target from promising positions.
