Robin van Persie scored a superb late goal to give Arsenal a 2-1 win over Italian champions Inter Milan and victory in the pre-season Emirates Cup tournament.

Arsenal's hopes of winning the two-day event, played at its Emirates Stadium, suffered a setback in the 62nd minute when Hondura striker David Suazo headed Inter in front.

But Belarus midfield player Alexander Hleb soon equalsied and Van Persie won it with a fine solo goal, firing home an angled shot to match the 2-1 win over Paris St Germain on Saturday.

In other pre-season friendlies, Newcastle United had an impressive 2-0 win over Juventus at St James's Park, while Celtic beat another Serie A side, Parma, 1-0 at Parkhead.
