Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has praised Bukayo Saka following the match against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge in London.
The Gunners got the better of Chelsea in the London derby in the Premier League on Wednesday evening.
Eddie Nketiah scored two goals, while Emile Smith Rowe and Saka found the back of the net once each for Arsenal, who can now be backed at 6/5 on Betfair to finish in the top four of the Premier League table this season.
Saka scored in the second minute of injury time from the penalty spot.
Arteta told Arsenal’s official website: “I thought that Gabi was going to take it. When I saw that Bukayo took it, honestly, my first thing that I thought was back in the summer and what happened.
“But again, I said to you guys, when that happened to Bukayo, that happened for a reason and he learned so much and he matured so much, that’s why he’s having the season that he’s had.
“For him to have to the courage to say ‘I’m going to take it again’ because I’m sure it was in the back of his mind, for me it’s ‘chapeau’ even if he had missed it.”
