News about Joe Aribo

Jordan Ayew completed a sensational turnaround as his added-time winner capped a 3-2 comeback win for Leicester at 10-man Southampton. Substitute Ayew smashed in Harry Winks' low corner eight minutes into stoppage time, after Facundo Buonanotte and Jamie Vardy's penalty sparked an incredible comeback. Goals from Cameron Archer and Joe Aribo had lifted the hosts and built hope of a first victory of the Premier League season.

DOMINIC HOGAN AT ST MARY'S: To have 23 shots and only win 1-0 tells you something about both victors Nottingham Forest and defeated hosts Southampton. Morgan Gibbs-White's break\through on 70 minutes saw the visitors take advantage of the heavy pressure they built throughout at St Mary's. Forest were aided in large part by Southampton's well-intentioned but ultimately detrimental insistence on playing out the back, particularly in the first half. Indeed, against a more clinical side they might have suffered a heavier defeat.

TOM COLLOMOSSE AT THE HAWTHORNS: Russell Martin heads into Friday's play-off decider against West Bromwich Albion knowing that defeat could hasten the end of his time as Southampton manager. Saints will believe they can finish the job in front of their own fans and seal their place in the final at Wembley - where the winner will claim not just promotion to the Premier League but an estimated £200million windfall for a campaign in the top flight. Yet if West Brom prevail in the second leg at St Mary's, Martin will have failed in his most important task - to return Southampton instantly to the elite level. Clubs who benefit from parachute payments - designed to ease the pain of relegation - are under greater pressure to deliver and if their managers do not handle it, their position becomes immediately more shaky.

The tie went to extra time, but it seemed to be all-but-done in the 90th minute of normal time, when Nigeria thought they had scored their second goal to go 2-0 up, but VAR intervened. Victor Osimhen came close and wheeled away in jubilation after he thought he had contributed to William Troost-Ekong's penalty earlier in the game to put a gap between the two teams. However, the VAR found that Joe Aribo fouled Teboho Mokoena in the penalty box at the other end of the pitch. Mokoena stepped up to score the kick and bring the game to a longer length.

AFCON is finally here, following months of rumors over which players will be ruled out of club action for up to four weeks. Following the most recent round of play, the continental tournament will take place from January 13 to February 11, with players having to join their national teams. This year's edition of the Ivory Coast will be held in Senegal, with Senegal as the reigning champions after defeating Egypt on penalties in the 2021 tournament (which took place in 2002).

MATT BARLOW: Jodi Jones used to say that there would be times like this. If it seemed that he was going to lose the fight to recover, he'd shut his eyes and imagine. On a big international night at Wembley Stadium, the butterflies were free and enjoying the experience. 25 of his relatives and families were on display, including great-grandfather Irene, 90 years old and watching him for the first time since his agonizing sequence of three critical ligament injuries.

Managing as a boss involves digging out the unexpected result and keeping your head above water. But that's never going to be enough if you're in possession of just one half of the Old Firm. You must always strive to prosper. Giovanni van Bronckhorst is a million miles away from doing that right now. For a Rangers boss to be profitable, you are expected to win the league, the odd cup, and hold your own in Europe. At any rate, you are held to a level that is almost impossible to attain at all times. Well, you know all about it from the moment you sign on the dotted line.

Since Joe Shields, Southampton's head of recruitment, was 'not a big loss,' Ralph Hasenhuttl has said. Shields has been heavily linked to a move to west London, with the former Crystal Palace, Fulham, and Manchester City employee being credited with a large part of the Saints' outstanding recruiting activity during the summer. Hasenhuttl has denied allegations that Shields would be a big loss and has said that his team would not be affected by it.

With United's defense standing strong in the face of late Southampton pressure, Bruno Fernandes' goal made the difference between the two teams. From a sunny, late August afternoon at St Mary's, Sportsmail takes you through the player ratings from the afternoon.

The summer transfer window hasn't failed to disappoint. Although the majority of Europe's top-flight leagues are set to tighten their belts, the Premier League has gone the other way, with top-flight clubs spending more than £1.5 billion so far during the season - and further contracts are planned. This is a record figure, outspending the £1.43 billion top division clubs invested in the summer of 2017. Chelsea leads the way as the division's top spenders, closely followed by Nottingham Forest, who have signed a startling 16 players under Steve Cooper. With just a week until the transfer window closes on September 1 at 11 p.m. BST, Sportsmail looks at where each club is planning to improve and who is on the radar.

LEICESTER 1-2 SOUTHAMPTON - TOM COLLMOSSE AT THE KING POWER STADIUM: Wesley Fofana watched from the stands as his team was booed off for tossing a lead away from home to Southampton. The centre-back, who is so keen to join Chelsea, sat with his partner, signing autographs and posing for photographs. Fans of Leicester will be curious how many more times they will see him in this stadium. It's difficult to see how Leicester will progress until Fofana's future is decided. Even a new Jamie Vardy contract could not lift the sense of anxiety, while the opening goal, a free-kick from James Maddison, only made the home team more tense.

We're just two weeks into the Premier League season, and there has been plenty of fallout to consider, including Manchester United! Despite the champions' two victories, and Premier League relegation candidates Brentford and Nottingham Forest gaining early victories, there's plenty to discuss going forward this season. That being said it's not too early to start picking up on talking points as we look at ten things we learned from the Premier League this weekend

Ralph Hasenhuttl is the fourth longest-serving manager in the Premier League, and he has seen a lot in his rollercoaster, having served for nearly four years. He would no doubt be familiar with the top-flight's ups and downs, as his rival Jesse Marsch discussed when giving the Southampton manager some words of comfort. Before he took the field against Leeds, he had already seen the positive effects that a change of formation could have before. Was it a late, desperate throw of the dice or an inspired piece of management? Time will tell.

ADRIAN KAJUMBA AT ST MARY'S: Southampton came back from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 at St Mary's thanks to Kyle Walker-Peters' late equalizer. The visitors recovered from an early injury to Patrick Bamford, scoring two second half goals and seeming to be about to condemn the Saints to back-to-back defeats in their two first games of the season. However, the home team made it back to action by Joe Aribo's first goal for the club after joining from Rangers. Walker-Peters' comeback was interrupted by nine minutes from time, but both teams' spoils were revealed.

This weekend, the Premier League returned with a bang, with Man City and Tottenham impressing, while Man United and Liverpool losing Man City and Leicester. But every year, the first weekend of the season brings more excitement, as fans see their summer signings play in a competitive match for the first time. So, who impressed for their new club, and who has work to do to make sure initial concerns go no further? Sportsmail looks at the best and worst of the latest players on display...
