Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has capitalised on an awful error from Norwich City goalkeeper Tim Krul to make it 1-0 to the Gunners in their Premier League clash tonight.
Watch below as Aubameyang makes no mistake from close range after nicking the ball off Krul, whose head was clearly all over the place at this crucial moment.

Aubameyang doesn’t need a second invitation, and simply rolled the ball into the back of the net from close range.
“Once, me and my wife partied with George Clooney and Megan Fox and came home at 6am. The day after, I scored a goal and assisted against Werder in the Champions League. After I saw that was possible, I wasn’t afraid to repeat it.” – Who said this? Click here to read more.
Bizarrely, this is similar to how Arsenal’s opening goal against Southampton came about, as we reported last week.
On that occasion, Alex McCarthy lost the ball for the Saints and gifted an easy goal to Eddie Nketiah.
