Arsenal striker Eddie Nketiah has admitted he is 'desperate to play football' following Tuesday's win over Sunderland.
The Englishman took advantage of a rare start by scoring a hat-trick in the 5-1 victory at the Emirates, taking Arsenal into the Carabao Cup semi-finals.
Speaking to Sky Sports, Nketiah said: "Great feeling. I want to say big thanks to my team-mates for some really good assists. I just had to be in the right place.
"I scored a similar goal [to his third] a couple of rounds ago.
"It's nice to get that reaction. I'm happy we can go to the next round and get a few goals.
"We could have played a lot better in the first half but we improved in the second half and more goals came. It was a great team display.
"This competition is the place I've been getting starts. I'll do my best whenever I'm asked to play.
"I'm desperate to play football. All I can do is keep working hard. It'll sort itself out. Hopefully we can go all the way.
"I'm just eager to play football. That's my main ambition. As long as I play for Arsenal I'll give my all."
