Olivier Giroud has taken a leaf out of Henrikh Mkhitaryan with a stunning back-heeled goal against Crystal Palace.

The Gunners striker flicked home Alexis Sanchez' cross to put Arsenal in front at the Emirates.

Olivier Giroud has produced one of the best goals ever seen in the Premier League.

The Armenian pulled off a sensational scorpion kick on Boxing Day.

However he did appear to be in an offside position.

Giroud was making just his second Premier League start of the season for Arsenal.
