Bukayo Saka has opened the scoring against Everton with a booming strike.
The England starlet has been a sensation this season, becoming the first Arsenal player to score 10+ Premier League goals.
The goal came in the 41st minute when the 21-year-old took a sensational strike past Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford with his weak foot. Zinchenko teed up Saka with a lovely dart of a pass.
Saka paid homage to Arsenal legend Thierry Henry in his celebration by holding the corner flag.
Where would Arsenal be without Bukayo Saka?
The “Lil Chilli,” aka Starboy, aka God’s Child, is currently negotiating with Arsenal on extending his contract. The Gunners have no choice but to give him what he wants. He’s reportedly set to earn $240,000 per week.
Saka also contributed to the Gunners’ second goal, giving him 9 assists on the season. The winger is the second-youngest player in Arsenal history to reach 50 combined goals and assists in the Premier League, behind Cesc Fabregas.
Saka dispossessed defensive midfielder Idrissa Gueye before Gabriel Martinelli took it on to score the second. The Brazilian joins Saka in reaching his 10th Premier League goal of the 22/23 season.
Arsenal could take a five-point lead over Manchester City at the top of the table if they win Wednesday’s game.
