For a while it looked as if it was never going to happen for Henrikh Mkhitaryan in the Premier League, but now he is back in the fray and already showing his quality.

His brilliantly taken goal was the first scored in the Premier League by an Armenian footballer, taking the number of different nationalities to have scored in the division to a massive 96.

Now he has got one under his belt, Mkhitaryan should kick on from here and get plenty more goals in the league.
