Marquinhos breaks down in TEARS after scoring just 16 minutes into his Arsenal debut against FC Zurich in the Europa League... before also providing an assist in a dream first appearance for the 19-year-old

Arsenal starlet Marquinhos broke down in tears on Thursday night after scoring his first goal for the club against Zurich in the Europa League.

The 19-year-old marked his first start for the club with an emphatic finish to take the lead against the Swiss champions, and fans could see how much the goal meant to the Brazilian, who knelt on the ground and shed a tear.

The winger arrived this summer from Brazilian side Sao Paulo in a £3.15million deal, as he follows the likes of Gabriel Martinelli and Pablo Mari, who have both joined the club from Brazilian teams in recent years.
