Nottingham Forest striker, Taiwo Awoniyi, came off the bench to score what ultimately proved to be a consolation goal, as they lost 2-1 at Arsenal.
It is Awoniyi’s second goal against the Gunners in consecutive matches.
The Super Eagles’ star found the back of the net at Forest Ground last season to claim a 1-0 win that confirmed Manchester City as champions.
Arsenal began their season with a 2-1 victory over Nottingham Forest, who set up a tense finish despite stunning goals from Eddie Nketiah and Bukayo Saka.
The Gunners fans were made to wait to see their team get in the groove – with kick-off at the Emirates Stadium delayed by half an hour due to turnstile issues – but a couple of slick strikes put them in control by half-time.
