What Danny Welbeck did after scoring against Arsenal for Brighton amid unique record

Danny Welbeck made 126 appearances over five seasons for Arsenal but this evening he lines up against them for Brighton in the Carabao Cup. The 31-year-old netted his first goal of the season levelling up the contest after Eddie Nketiah had given the Gunners the lead.

Just seven minutes after Nketiah's strike, Welbeck was played through on goal before he was fouled by Karl Hein, who is making his Arsenal debut, after he slipped when trying to close down the former Arsenal man.

Welbeck then lined up and took the penalty, sending Hein the wrong way before grabbing the ball out of the back of the net and running back to the halfway line, choosing not to celebrate.
