Nicolas Pepe finally arrived at Arsenal tonight, with the Gunners' club-record £72 million signing scoring two wonderful free-kicks to complete a remarkable turnaround at the Emirates.
Arsenal were 2-1 down at home to Portuguese outfit Vitoria in the Europa League when the Ivorian winger was sent on by Unai Emery in what proved to be an inspired substitution.
The former Lille man scored his first goal in open play for Arsenal when his curling set-piece strike levelled matters ten minutes from time, before Pepe bagged an even better free-kick with his cultured left-foot, this time bending one into the top bins in the last kick of the game.
