Arsenal midfielder Mesut Ozil has said that their first-goal at the weekend against Norwich City was like something you would see on a games console.
The first-half strike has already been labelled as goal of the season and it came after Santi Cazorla, Olivier Giroud and Jack Wilshere all linked up perfectly outside the penalty area, before the Englishman volleyed home.
Despite scoring twice later on in the game, Ozil revealed that there was only one highlight of the game and that was THAT goal from Wilshere.
“I’ve got to praise the three players involved for the first goal,” he told Arsenal Player. “It was real ‘tiki taka’ – almost like they were playing PlayStation! It was an unbelievable goal.
“I know that I can still improve but I’m happy with my display and the performance of the team. Aaron Ramsey showed that any player who comes on will do his best for the team and will get involved in tackles and attacks immediately.
“That’s why we’ve been in such good form. I’m really proud of the team. We’re taking what the manager wants us to take into games and are making strides. Now we’ve got another three points and can be pleased with that.
“[Confidence] is really high. We know what we can do but we won’t get carried away. It’s still very early but we know how much potential we have in the team. We just enjoy playing and it shows on the pitch. We fight for each other and we are always there for one another. That’s why we’ve been so successful.”
