16. Mesut zil v Napoli 2013/2014
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JFH2vgQKylo Arsenal headed into the second game of the 2013 group stages against Napoli, who were top after an emphatic win against group favourites Borussia Dortmund. Deadline day signing and club record signing Mesut zil made his first Champions League start for The Gunners and it didn't take long before he broke the deadlock and bagged his first goal for the club. The ball was played up field by Bacary Sagna to fellow Frenchman Olivier Giroud, who chested the ball down and released Aaron Ramsey into space. The Welshman got to the byline before smashing the ball across the Napoli box where The German met the ball first time with a left footed rocket past a stranded Pepe Reina. Arsenal went on to win the game 2-0, a strong performance by the Gunners.
