A section of Arsenal fans on Twitter reacted to Gabriel Martinelli’s display in the 3-1 Premier League win at Crystal Palace last night.
The Gunners took the lead in the 35th minute through Nicolas Pepe and managed to hold on to the slender advantage at the interval.
The Eagles started the second half as the brighter side and scored after the hour mark with a Christian Benteke header from a free-kick.
A draw seemed on the cards before Martinelli came off the bench to score a crucial goal for the north London side in the 91st minute.
Martinelli got on the right end of Martin Odegaard’s cross. The ball initially deflected off his knee, but he kept composure to find the back of the net.
Nicolas Pepe put the result beyond doubt in the final seconds of the game, with a lovely solo goal cutting inside from the right flank.
Following the game, some Gunners fans reacted to Martinelli’s performance. A few believe that the teenager should be starting regularly.
