Arsene Wenger delighted with Arsenal victory

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has praised his players following Wednesday's 7-1 friendly victory over Vietnam.

Olivier Giroud netted a first-half hat-trick at the My Dinh National Stadium as the Gunners made it two wins from two matches on their tour of Asia.

"It was a game played with good pace and a good spirit. For us of course it was a good preparation for the season," Wenger told the club's official website.

"We played at a good pace and overall it was a very positive night. Vietnam have qualities and I think they suffered a little bit defensively against our pace up front."

Arsenal continue their pre-season preparations on Monday when they travel to Japan to face Nagoya Grampus.
