One touch to the left, a little jinx, the smallest gap and a rocket into the near top corner. Martin Odegaard's goal to round off another brilliant day for Arsenal was fitting for the occasion. The captain in on the act, all smiles here. On to Stamford Bridge we go.
A left-footed, creative, ball-playing, space-finding assist-making integral No.10 in a 4-2-3-1, this is something out of Arsene Wenger's greatest hits playbook. In his final days at Arsenal, it was a mirror to the past that he couldn't conjure up.
It was part of a development that saw the Gunners move away from powerful midfield patrollers Patrick Vieira and Emanuel Petit towards intricate and delicate beauty players. Not in a bad way, but players that epitomised the 'they have to walk it in attitude.'
