Watch: Eberechi Eze Scores Stunning First Champions League Goal for Arsenal vs Leverkusen | OneFootball

Arsenal have taken a crucial lead against Bayer Leverkusen, courtesy of a stunning goal from Eberechi Eze. 

Eze’s controls the ball with his left foot, spins and as it sat up on his right, he just powers it in first time on a half-volley.  The goalkeeper had no chance to save it as it went past him in a flash.

That is some way to score your first Champions League goal. Watch below:

The goal means Arsenal now lead 2-1 on aggregate with 45 minutes left to play.

Eze has been phenomenal for Arsenal since signing from Crystal Palace

Since his high-profile move from Crystal Palace, Eze has established himself as a vital component of Mikel Arteta’s tactical setup.

His ability to operate between the lines and his flair in one-on-one situations have added a new dimension to the Arsenal attack.

Despite the absence of captain Martin Odegaard due to injury, Eze has stepped up as the primary creative outlet.

His performance against Leverkusen tonight further justifies the significant investment made by the club, proving he can deliver on the grandest stage of European football.

Eze’s goal keeps the dream of an unprecedented quadruple very much alive for the North London side.

Currently sitting nine points clear at the top of the Premier League and with an FA Cup quarter-final on the horizon, the Gunners are arguably the most in-form team in Europe.

With the Carabao Cup Final against Manchester City scheduled for this Sunday, the momentum from a potential European victory tonight could be season-defining.
