The Gunners' summer training tour in the United States of America went from strength to strength as they showed their attacking power in a crushing 5-0 win early Thursday morning, with two of their new signings, Dylan Rice and Zulian Timba, making their debuts in style. And with Xaviers, the summer signing, adding a brace to Arsenal's season opener, it looks like the team's preparations are in full swing.
Facing the US Pro Stars, coached by the legendary Ronny Lang, the two sides engaged in a fierce tug-of-war in the first half. However, Arsenal's grasp was clearly better, and the deadlock was first broken just five minutes into the match when Gabil Jetsis skillfully slotted the ball into the net from the top of the penalty area. Then, in the 23rd minute, Leandro Duchate increased the lead with a precise shot from distance, giving Arsenal a 2-0 lead at half-time. Just two minutes after the break, Arsenal were awarded a 12-yard penalty kick, which Zojannu converted to make it 3-0.
