It finally happened, take a look at Martin Odegaard’s debut goal with the Arsenal kit during tonight’s Europa League clash vs Olympiacos.
Martin Odegaard’s Arsenal journey hasn’t been easy after making the decision to leave Real Madrid in the winter transfer window. He wasn’t playing as much under Zinedine Zidane and Mikel Arteta offered him an alternative. Although it also took him a little time to adjust, he finally got some good news with today’s performance. The Norwegian midfielder played alongside another La Liga outkast who is having a tough time in North London, Thomas Partey.
Both players combined for Odegaard to release an impressive striker from a long-distance during the first half. As the Gunners attempted to get an away victory in Greece, this goal served them well to earn the confidence they needed. With this goal, the young midfielder gets a little more trust from Arteta with the hope of getting more minutes in the Premier League this season.
Gabriel takes over the show.
Even though El-Arabi scored the equalizer in the second half, Arsenal was determined to get that away victory. All the Gunners were thinking about smashing that result just before the North London Derby on the same day Tottenham played. Gabriel Magalhaes scored an important header after an assist from Willian during a set-piece. Then, he set Mohamed Elneny up for the third goal before the final whistle.
With this win, the Gunners get to next Sunday with a great momentum and ready to face Jose Mourinho’s Spurs. It will be an insane weekend that will divide the whole area of North London as it happens every time these two football clubs meet on the pitch. Odegaard also made some points with the hopes of getting some minutes during that match.
