Zhekelais scored twice + tied up a haircut and domineering fight back in the first round of criticism

In the second round of the Premier League, Arsenal defeated Leeds United 5-0 at home, and forward Zhekelais, who transferred from Portugal Sports for 65.8 million euros this summer, finally broke out! He not only scored the Gunners' first goal in his career, but also scored twice, and calmly tidied his hairstyle towards the camera after scoring the goal - a move that has been widely interpreted as a perfect counterattack to his debut criticism.

From "Hairstylist" to "King of Goals", it only took him one week

Just a week ago, Arsenal defeated Manchester United 1-0 away in the first round of the Premier League, and Zhekelais made his debut. But he played for 60 minutes in that game and handed over embarrassing data: 0 shots, 22 touches, a pass success rate of only 44%, and even became a hot search for "titling hair 21 times". Netizens joked: "Does he come to play football or do hairstyle?"

However, in the second round alone, Zhekelais broke all doubts with his strength.

In the 48th minute, he received the ball behind him and calmly pushed the ball to score; in the 95th minute, he took the penalty and secured the victory. According to official statistics, he shot three times, two shots on the right side and scored two goals in the game, which was extremely efficient!

What's more exciting is that after scoring the goal, he walked to the camera and slowly sorted out his hairstyle - as if saying: "I'm not here to play football, I'm here to win the game."

Data comparison: From "hairstyle responsibility" to "best of the game"

After the game, Zhekelais was voted as the best in the game by the official Premier League fans (unofficial best, the best in the official is Tinber). He said in an interview: "There is always pressure, but I know I will seize the opportunity sooner or later."

Why does he care so much about hairstyle?

As early as the beginning of joining Arsenal, Zhekelais made a new look at a barber shop in London called "Barber King". Obviously, he has extremely high requirements for his image.

But fans now say: "If he can score twice in every game, it's okay to have a 210-time hit!"

He is the second person in Arsenal's history!

Zhekelais also became the second player to score at least 2 goals in his home debut in Arsenal's Premier League career after Jesus (August 2022).

Gunners coach Arteta praised after the game: "He showed the calmness and personality of the shooter."

Editor's comment:

From "Hair Brother" to "Google Brother", it only took Zhekelais 135 minutes. He told everyone with his strength: I tidy up my hairstyle, it doesn’t mean I can’t organize the competition!

Arsenal fans can finally shout with confidence: "This hair is not flirting with nothing!"
