Martin Odegaard, the captain of Arsenal, said that Thomas Partey's spectacular goal in their 3-1 victory over Tottenham with 10 men came directly off the practice field.

Partey scored his first goal outside the penalty area for the club, a pin-point curling effort from 25 yards out, to put the Gunners ahead 20 minutes into the north London derby.

Hugo Lloris and Cristian Romero made a mistake, and Gabriel Jesus took advantage of it to give Arsenal the lead from close range. Granit Xhaka then scored a crisp third goal after Emerson Royal was sent off for a dangerous foul on Gabriel Martinelli.

“It was a great goal. We knew before the game he was going to be free in those areas and we practised that a lot, to find him in those areas, and he made a great shot," Martin said as quoted by the club's website.

"I think he played a great game as well so a lot of credit to him, and of course the team.”
