Player ratings:

Manu Zinsberger 7/10

Was not required to make a save in just over 70 minutes of action.

Katie McCabe 7/10

Caused problems with some corners and linked up effectively with Caldentey.

Leah Williamson 7/10

A better display from the England captain, who serviced the Arsenal attackers well with pinpoint long passes.

Katie Reid 8.5/10

Handed another start in what has been a very impressive few weeks for the teenage centre-back. Calm on the ball with a good physical presence, playing just shy of 90 minutes and barely putting a foot wrong.

Emily Fox 6.5/10

Made her first start of pre-season and drove into midfield on the ball.

Kim Little 7/10

Has started all three of Arsenal’s pre-season matches and battled really well in midfield.

Kyra Cooney-Cross 8/10

Broke the deadlock with a peach of a goal, finding the top left hand corner from the edge of the box on her left foot.

Mariona Caldentey 7/10

Looked to drive infield from the left flank in her first Arsenal start, in which she saw a lot of possession.

Frida Maanum 7.5/10

Headed over the crossbar from McCabe’s powerful cross early on and found some good pockets of space in attacking midfield, but lacked a ruthless touch in the final third.

Caitlin Foord 7/10

Started on the right wing with Caldentey on the left, one of nine Arsenal players withdrawn at half-time.

Alessia Russo 7/10

Should have done better when Cooney-Cross’ delivery found her in the box, but her shot was straight at Haaland in goal.

Laila Harbert (Sub, HT) 7/10

The midfielder (by trade) came on at left-back and performed well, getting forward to deliver crosses.

Laura Wienroither (Sub, HT) 7.5/10

A confident display at right-back, almost finding the net when Haaland’s clearance ricocheted off the Austrian international.

Stina Blackstenius (Sub, HT)

Linked up well with compatriot Kafaji before being replaced in the 66th minute.

Michelle Agyemang (Sub, HT) 7/10

Used her physicality effectively, battling well on the right wing.

Vivienne Lia (Sub, HT) 8/10

Delivered some pinpoint set-pieces, with two free-kick deliveries leading to goals. Another young talent who has made her mark in pre-season.

Laia Codina (Sub, HT) 8/10

Powered home a header for Arsenal’s second and was in the right place to complete her brace a couple of minutes later.

Rosa Kafaji (Sub, HT) 7/10

Fired a shot narrowly over the crossbar after being played in by Wienroither, quickly causing a world of problems for the Southampton defence.

Lia Walti (Sub, HT) 7/10

An assured display from the bench from the Swiss stalwart.

Kathrine Kuhl (Sub, HT) 6.5/10

Tidy on the ball in midfield, knitting play together.

Freya Godfrey (Sub, 66’)

Naomi Williams (Sub, 73’)

Tara Junaid (Sub, 89’)
