Goal transformed into art: Wenger lauds Giroud's 'scorpion' (The Associated Press)

With Alexis Sanchez's cross floating into the penalty area behind him, Olivier Giroud only had one choice: A back-heeled overhead flick. ''I was a bit lucky but it was the only thing I could do,'' Giroud said. The ball hit the underside of the crossbar, came down and went over the line to produce one of the most exceptional goals witnessed by Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger.
