Arsenal man Matteo Guendouzi celebrates in car with jubilant fans after north London derby victory

Arsenal youngster Matteo Guendouzi may have only got a 20-minute taste of his first north London derby but the young Frenchman ensured this will be a game he remembers for quite some time.

Guendouzi was brought on to replace Shkodran Mustafi midway through the second half and watched on as Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Alexandre Lacazette and Lucas Torreira sealed an emphatic 4-2 win over win over fierce rivals Tottenham at the Emirates Stadium.

With six goals, two penalties, a red card and a mass brawl, the North London derby truly delivered in what was one of the games of the season.

The 19-year-old, who only arrived from Ligue 2 outfit Lorient this summer, could have been forgiven for not being entirely up-to-date with the importance of the fixture.

But Guendouzi showed he understood just what the occasion meant to the fans and players when he was spotted outside the stadium.

Footage emerged on social media of the midfielder being mobbed by ecstatic Arsenal supporters after the game had finished.

While some footballers prefer to keep their distance from the fans, it was clear Guendouzi wanted to savour the moment as he gave out high-fives and embraced the fans while sitting inside his car.

The France Under-21 international was in the back of his chauffeured Mercedes-Benz when, after bumping into a group of frenzied Gunners fans on the pavement, he wound down his window to greet them.

As the car pulls away, Guendouzi leans out himself and can be seen cheering and pumping his fists in the air as the fans continue chanting.

The win ensured that Arsenal not only claimed bragging rights until the return fixture in March but also that they move ahead of Tottenham in the table and within a point of Chelsea in third.
