Aston Villa goalkeeper Emi Martinez hit back at former Arsenal teammate Alexandre Lacazette after victory on Saturday.

The former Arsenal teammates were on opposite sides as Aston Villa beat the Gunners 1-0 on home soil in the Premier League on Saturday.

The pair grappled with each other as the ball went across the six-yard box and Villa goalkeeper Martinez pulled Arsenal striker Lacazette's shirt as they both tumbled to the ground.

Lacazette was not keeping his feelings to himself on Twitter after the final whistle.

Replying to a video of the incident, he wrote "Another one..." followed by a couple of unimpressed face emojis.

Martinez then replied to Lacazette's post, saying: "You were pushing me first bro."
