Let’s be honest, we weren’t at the races for large parts of that first half; Arsenal could – and should – have been out of sight.

But, as the old saying goes, it only takes a second to score a goal.

And boy was it a goal worth waiting for. Phil Coutinho had been mostly anonymous in the opening 45 – but he stepped up when it matter to curl home an incredible 25/30-yard free-kick.

It was majestical.

He seems to have a habit of scoring stunning opening day goals after his late heroics against Stoke last season.

Twitter went bananas as the ball hit the net – but is this the best and most descriptive tweet of the lot?

Love it.
