Kieran Tierney cemented his status as Arsenal’s cult hero in the 3-2 win over Benfica in the Europa League.
Since Tierney joined the Gunners from Celtic in 2019, he has impressed on and off the pitch and the Fans prompted him to appoint him club captain.
After Diogo Goncalves and Rafa Silva put Benfica 2-1 ahead, Tierney equalized with his third goal for the club.
In the closing stages of the game Benfica striker Darwin Nunez won a very soft free kick after being challenged by Tierney.
But he had the last laugh when Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang scored a late winner to give Arsenal a place in the Europa League last 16 secure.
