Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has suffered his first Premier League defeat since being appointed as the interim manager of Manchester United.

His side went down 2-0 to Arsenal at Emirates Stadium on Sunday.

Granit Xhaka scored in the 12th minute before Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang doubled the hosts' lead with a perfectly taken penalty in the 69th minute.

The result sees the Gunners surpass past the Red Devils to move into the top four in the points table.
