Arsenal’s player and staff congratulated Martinelli after the full-time whistle. Arsenal had three different players aged 21 or younger score for them in a single Premier League game for the first time. Gabriel Martinelli was an unused sub in seven of Arsenal’s first 12 league games. Now he’s started five of their last six and has four goals and two assists in the process. It was also the first Martinelli scored a brace for Arsenal in a Premier League game.
