"It was a great goal. I think the whole build-up was good and the way he turns in the box and the finish," Odegaard said in his post-match interview

"I’m really, really happy for him to come in and do a performance like this. So, so happy for him."

Nketiah lasted the entire duration of the game at the Emirates stadium.
