Gabriel Martinelli was delighted to score in Arsenal's rout of Crystal Palace today.

Martinelli struck in the 4-1 win.

He said, "Very happy, we needed that win and as I always say, we approach the games as a final and we did that today.

"It was a good goal, good pass from B [Bukayo Saka]. I don't know if it was to me or someone else but it was a good finish with my weak foot, good goal.

"Saka is a great guy not just him but the whole team. We are a family but Saka is a great guy and I just love to play with him.

"Of course, we will watch the game, see our mistakes and see what we can do to improve for the next game.

"What I can say is that we go to every game with the hunger to win and try our best. It's a very good feeling."

On getting over the disappointment of missing the penalty in their Europa League defeat to Sporting Lisbon, he said: "It is life. Not every game you are going to score and play well. Of course I was sad and spent the whole night thinking about that penalty but it is over. I scored a goal today and we got the three points, the most important thing."
