Arsenal striker Olivier Giroud admits his sublime scorpion kick in the 2-0 win against Crystal Palace had an element of luck, despite many placing it among the greatest Premier League goals of all time.
Giroud was keen to impress in only his second league start of the season, and the France striker needed only 17 minutes to leave an indelible impression as he scored an incredible goal to break the deadlock at the Emirates.
The Eagles were in a position high up the pitch when a move broke down, and the Gunners broke at pace down the left flank with Alexis Sanchez.
