Jenkinson returns as Saints hold Arsenal

Premier League 2

Right-back plays first match since injury in stalemate at Boreham Wood

Carl Jenkinson played his first match in nine months as Arsenal and Southampton played a goalless draw in Division 1 at Meadow Park.

The right-back lasted an hour in the match which the home team dominated but could not find a way past Alex McCarthy in the Southampton net.

Ismael Bennacer went closest for Arsenal with a first-half shot hitting a post, while Tyreke Johnson missed a late chance for Saints. 

The point apiece lifted Southampton to second and Arsenal to ninth (See table).
