July 20, 2008 | Filed Under: Highlights 

Arsenal overturned a 1-0 deficit in the second half to beat League Two opponents Barnet on Saturday afternoon.

Arsenal looked in danger of a shock defeat to Barnet on Saturday afternoon, but two second half goals ensured the Premiership side earned a morale-boosting win. New £5 million signing from Cardiff City Aaron Ramsey played in the first half.

1 - 0 Kenny Gillet (16 minutes)

Barnet took a surprise lead when Gillet curled a free-kick from 25-yards around the wall and inside Manuel Almunia’s near post.

1 - 1 Jay Simpson (63 minutes)

Simpson, who was awarded last season’s League One Player of the Year award after spending the campaign on loan at Millwall, smashed home a Jack Wilshere through ball from inside the area.

1 - 2 Nacer Barazite (73 minutes)

Simpson played in Dutchman Barazite who coolly finished underneath veteran Bees goalkeeper Lee Harrison to complete the turnaround for Arsene Wenger’s side.
