Arsenal came from behind against Ludogorets to confirm their qualification to the round of 16 stage of the UEFA Champions League. After going 2-0 down within the first 15 minutes of Tuesday’s clash in Bulgaria, the Gunners showed great character to win the game 3-2.
From the five goals that were scored in the match, Mesut Ozil’s winner was undoubtedly the pick of the bunch and an early Champions League Goal of the Season candidate. The midfielder lofted the ball over a helpless goalkeeper before dribbling past two defenders to slot it into an open net to win the game for his side.
Twitter did its bit in congratulating the German for his incredible goal:
OZIL just sent the Ludogorets defenders back to Europa league last 32 to wait for Manchester United and Paul Pogba. ???????????
