Arsenal vs Huddersfield highlights: Unai Emery’s side came back to winning ways with a 1-0 win over Huddersfield.
Arsenal returned to winning ways with a 1-0 win over Huddersfield. Lucas Torreira scored an incredible bicycle kick to seal the three points for the Gunners.
The Uruguayan midfielder converted an excellent cross from striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang with an overhead kick. This was Torreira’s second goal for Arsenal since joining the club earlier in the summer, the first being six days ago in the North London derby.
Arsenal, with win, have climbed up to 3rd place in the league. However, their assurances for the spot depend on games between Chelsea and Manchester City, and Tottenham and Leicester City.
Here are some of the best tweets from the game:

Football is a simple game. 22 men chase the ball for 90 minutes and in the end Torreira is the best buy this summer.

Xhaka with another elite display from the middle that will possibly go unnoticed by many. Torreira looked a bit tired in parts and Xhaka stepped up really nicely. Defensively he was a beast and he helped us progress the ball very nicely. Captain’s display.

Someone needs to check what’s in the Uruguayan tea that Torreira is constantly drinking. The man is a joke. 270 minutes in 6 days, two of which were against direct rivals, and not only did he perform in all of them, he managed to score two goals in the process. What a signing.

Fred to Man Utd to £52m
Jorginho to Chelsea £50m
Fabinho to Liverpool £39m
Torreira to Arsenal £25m
What a bargain.

Call Torreira, hand him a new contract before Real Madrid and Barcelona come knocking.

I repeat, Lucas Torreira is the best defensive midfielder technically in the EPL and second best in the world just behind Sergio Busquets.
