Arsenal has extended its unbeaten run to 22 games after beating Qarabag in the last match of Europa League group stage.

Alexandre Lacazette scored the only goal of the game in the 16th minute, and Unai Emery’s men topped Group E with 16 points.

There was a pitch invasion during the match, when an Armenian fan ran onto the pitch wearing a t-shirt with the portrait of war hero Monte Melkonyan and holding an Artsakh flag above his head. The fan tried to approach Henrikh Mkhitaryan, but the security got to him quickly.
