were the offenders. Sadly there weren’t as many moments of attacking quality as cautions.

Pierre-emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette blew first-half chances in quick order.

Lacazette then had a goal controversially ruled out after he latched on to Mathias Jorgensen’s poor back pass having been offside in the phase before, and Jonas Lossl’s flying save from Torreira extended the Gunners’ run this season of not leading a Premier League game at the break. However, Arsenal might have trailed but Alex Pritchard blasted over just before half-time. Arsenal’s huffing and puffing continued after the break but they rarely looked like blowing down the wall protecting Lossl’s goal and a point would have been huge for Town to take back home.

And the celebrations were getting started with suspended striker Steve Mounie sat in with the fans and leading them in song.

But Huddersfield’s hearts were broken when Aubameyang’s chipped cross was acrobatically volleyed in by Torreira.

Terriers boss David Wagner said: “The players have to keep their heads high. We have to show we can keep competing at the highest level and then we will collect points for sure.”
