Watch: Bruno Guimaraes scores another long-range strike after coming on to complete Arsenal comeback

Bruno Guimaraes scores to complete comeback for Arsenal

Leeds United quieted the North London crowd when James Justin turned in Gabriel Gudmundsson’s low cross past David Raya to give the visitors a deserved lead.

However, Arsenal rallied back swiftly. Riccardo Calafiori continued his brilliant start to the new season, as he leveled the score seven minutes later, turning in a cushioned header from Ben White inside the box.

With the match balanced on a knife-edge, Arteta introduced Bruno Guimarães off the bench.

Just minutes after stepping onto the pitch, the midfielder ignited the move himself by taking a quick restart before surging forward.

Martin Odegaard played the ball into Declan Rice, who cleverly flicked it into the path of Guimarães on the edge of the box.

The Brazilian unleashed a thunderous first-time strike into the bottom corner, beating James Trafford to cap off a thrilling turnaround.
