Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger says Olivier Giroud told him he would score in Europa League win

Olivier Giroud scored a spectacular overhead kick to seal all three points for Arsenal in Belgrade

Arsene Wenger says Olivier Giroud told him he would score before the striker's superb overhead kick sealed a 1-0 win for Arsenal in the Europa League.

The Gunners travelled to Red Star Belgrade on Thursday and were facing a 0-0 draw against the Serbian side, but after Milan Rodic was sent off the hosts in the 80th minute, Giroud produced an acrobatic finish to seal the win for the Premier League side.

Following the win - which sees Arsenal maintain their 100 per cent start in the competition - Wenger revealed that Giroud knew he was going to find the back of the net.
