Elye Wahi put in an excellent performance as Lens came from behind to shock Arsenal in the Champions League, while Bukayo Saka suffered another injury.
Wahi's first-time finish into the bottom left corner after a cross from Przemyslaw Frankowski saw the home side take the lead in the 69th minute.
The Gunners rode some early pressure from Lens before Gabriel Jesus opened the scoring after a 14th-minute through-ball from Bukayo Saka, who then went off injured.
Lens levelled with a superb finish from Adrien Thomasson, who curled into the far corner.
Saka went off after 33 minutes in another blow for Mikel Arteta's side on a difficult night in Europe's top-tier competition.

Arteta is slow to learn, slow to recognise danger, and slow to act or make important decisions if and when a decision needs to be made. this is the second match that Saka should not have played in! He has been injured since the Spurs match and he should have been subbed as it happened, but Arteta who neglected to secure cover for Saka during the summer transfer market decided to keep him on. Then he plays him against Bournemouth, but was that even necessary? NO! Saka picked up a more severe knock I that match, and now yet again zarteta plays him in this Lens match and what happens? More injury news. WTH is wrong with Arteta, is he seriously trying to destroy Saka?
