Arsenal secured an incredible last-gasp 3-2 victory against Bournemouth on Saturday afternoon.
The Gunners were 2-0 with less than half an hour to go in their must-win Premier League clash at the Emirates Stadium after Phillip Billing and Marcos Senesi had netted for the visitors either side of half-time. However, Thomas Partey finished from close range after 62 minutes before Ben White equalised following an excellent cross from substitute Reiss Nelson.
Nelson then scored the winner, smashing the ball past the helpless Neto deep into injury time. As all of Nelson's teammates celebrated like madmen, the 23-year-old channelled his inner Cristiano Ronaldo, gesturing to calm down with a smile on his face.

Ronaldo famously coined the celebration, known as the 'Calma, calma' during a tense El Classico back in 2012, effectively urging the Nou Camp fans to be quiet. Nelson's finish sent the Emirates crowd into pandemonium, with the result restoring his side's five-point gap at the top of the league table.
Manchester City had won earlier in the day, defeating Newcastle United 2-0 to close the gap to two points but the north London outfit responded in perfect fashion. But there are still 12 games to be played in the league and Arsenal haven't yet played City away from home, travelling to the Etihad Stadium in late April.
Next up for the Gunners is a trip to Lisbon, taking on Sporting CP in the first leg of their round of 16 Europa League clash on Thursday night.
