Arsenal’s Gabriel Martinelli celebrated with his father after their 4-3 win against Luton at Kenilworth Road. The Brazilian forward netted the first goal for his side, which gave the North London side a lead over their counterparts 20th minute into the game. Five minutes later, Luton responded to it and Gabriel Osho powered a header past David Raya from Alfie Doughty's corner. Arsenal’s Gabriel Jesus responded to it stronger as he pounced on the cross at the far post by Ben White and hit a header to put his team ahead just before half-time.
Gabriel’s goal was a landmark goal for the Gunners; with the goal, all 11 players scored each of Arsenal's last 11 goals in the Premier League and set a tournament record. Their last-minute header came from Declan Rice, who scored a 97th-minute header to record a 4-3 win over the Luton Town team and put them on the top of the Premier League table.
After the victory, Martinelli ran to his father and celebrated his side’s first triumph at Luton since 1986. He posted the celebration video on his social media, and captioned it, “A goal and a last-minute winner with your Dad in the away end? Perfect” Rice, who scored the 97th minute goal for his side said, "To score in the last minute and keep the momentum building, it's massive for us. Those are the moments you look back on. What a game. To score the winner is an honour."

Notably, Arsenal have already crossed the 100-goal mark across all competitions in 2023. Bukayo Saka's goal against Wolves in their 2-1 win at the Emirates was the Gunners' 100th goal across all competitions in 2023. The record made them just the fifth team from the five European leagues to register the feat.
