Martinelli transforms into "super substitute"

Arsenal tied Manchester City in the early hours of the Premier League on Monday (22nd), and Brazilian winger Martinei became a "super substitute". After he shot Bilbao's goal after making a substitute in the Central European Champions League last week, he scored a life-saving goal in stoppage time after a substitute in the last period of this game. It turned out that Martinei's girlfriend Isabella Russo had predicted that he would score a goal the day before the game!

Martinelli came on the bench in the 80th minute of this game. He scored a one-on-one shot in the third minute of stoppage time in the second half. His girlfriend Isabella also celebrated on social media after the game, and posted screenshots of his conversation with Martinelli the day before. At that time, Martinelli said that he would not start the main player in this game. His girlfriend Isabella immediately replied: "You will face an opponent who has held up tired steps in the second half. You will definitely score a goal, so let's see it."

Girlfriend Isabella's prophecy came true, and it may also be Arteta's careful deployment to the "tired opponent". After he came on the bench in the last two games, he scored 2 goals and 1 assist, and both goals were received and long passes behind him. He dribbled the ball and broke through the opponent and scored one-on-one. Martinelli said: "I often practice this style of play. If I have a choice, I certainly want to play for 90 minutes, but the head coach knows my ability. All players trust his decisions very much. I just need to try my best to help the team."
