Leandro Trossard was delighted to prove Arsenal's matchwinner in victory at Everton.

Trossard struck the only goal of the game at Goodison Park on Sunday.

He later said, "It's always nice to help your team, especially with a winning goal.

"I think it's a great action. I called B (Saka) and he saw me with a perfect lay-off. It went in perfectly and I'm very happy. I've been practicing all my life on both feet and you can see it helps you. It's so helpful if you're good on both feet - you can go both ways and score off either.

"We knew and we wanted to win the game. It's always a hard game, they give you a hard time but we defended the box well, got a couple of chances and took one of those chances.

"They have a lot of tall guys and they're good on set-pieces. We wanted to exploit them. We work hard on everything tactically."

On his role so far this season, the Belgian added: "You know the competition in the team - we have so many good players. I'm happy at the moment and happy I could contribute with a goal."
