No.1. Declan Rice’s incredible Free-Kicks vs Real Madrid 🎯
It had to be, didn’t it.
We could have included both performances against Real Madrid, but the first leg of our 2024/25 Champions League quarter-final will go down as one of the most unforgettable nights in Emirates Stadium history. ⭐️
Declan Rice and his free-kicks are what the game will always be remembered for. The first was stunning. The second, Outrageous. 30 yards out, top corner. Pure theatre. 🎥
No.2. Eberechi Eze’s NLD Hattrick 🎩❤️
Credit to the scriptwriters, not only did Arsenal get one over Sp*rs last summer by hijacking their move for Eberechi Eze, but he then poured salt into the wounds on derby day in November, firing in a sensational hat-trick. 🔥
Our summer signing became the first Arsenal player to score a hat-trick in a North London Derby since Alan Sunderland in 1978. 🪄
Let it all work out. ♥️
No.3. Arsenal sign Martin Zubimendi ✍️🇪🇸
Zubimendi was wanted across Europe before his summer arrival, following a drawn-out agreement with Real Sociedad from January.
So far, he’s looked worth every penny of the £60m, delivering masterful performances in the pivot, a role Arsenal have struggled to fill in recent times.
The arrival of new Sporting Director Andrea Berta was another strong move, with his front-footed recruitment setting the tone for a big 2026 ahead. 📈
No.4. Gabriel scores a last-minute winner at Newcastle. 🇧🇷
Newcastle were on course for another home victory against Arteta’s men, but as shown countless times in 2025, this Arsenal side never know when they’re beaten.
Merino equalised late, before the three points came from a familiar source, a set-piece.
Gabriel, the chief orchestrator at corners, rose at the near post to head home and spark huge celebrations in the away. ❤️
2025 was the year of ‘Set Piece FC’.
No.5. Max Dowman becomes the SECOND-YOUNGEST player in Premier League history.
At just 15 years, 235 days, starlet Dowman came on against Leeds United to make his senior Arsenal debut. ✨
He delivered an impressive cameo - one mazy run, two long-range efforts, and then won a stoppage-time penalty after being brought down in the box.
We’re excited to see what’s next from the young Englishman in 2026. 🏴
Counting down Arsenal’s BEST MOMENTS of 2025!
