Arsenal’s £64m summer signing, Victor Gyokeres has described his two goals against Atletico Madrid in the Champions League on Tuesday night as great.
The Swede spoke to the press after his Player of the Match performance in north London.
Brazilian duo, Gabriel Martinelli and Gabriel Magalhaes had put the Gunners ahead with all the goals coming in the second half.
The 27-year-old had gone nine games without a goal before ending his drought with a welcome brace against Atletico.
“I am very pleased,” he told UEFA. “They had some good opportunities but I think we controlled it overall.
“To score four and keep a clean sheet again is very good. We always keep going. We do the things right when we defend and when we get the chances we are extremely strong in taking those.
“Both [my] goals were great. I try to do my best all the time and work hard, contribute with different stuff and the goals would have come sooner or later.
“We want to do well, we want to win football matches but there’s a long journey to go. We will take it game-by-game, even if that sounds boring.”
Arsenal will play against Slavia Prague on November 4 in their next Champions League, while Atletico will look to bounce back against Union Saint-Gilloise.
In the Premier League, Arteta’s side will face Crystal Palace and Atletico will travel to Real Betis in the LaLiga.
