Watch highlights of Arsenal's impressive comeback against Manchester United

Arsenal Football Club gave their supporters a thrilling memory as they will always want to watch the highlights of their pre-season game vs Manchester United as they came from a goal down to emerge victorious.

Rasmus Hojlund scored the opening goal for the Red Devils in the first ten minutes, and Gabriel Jesus scored the equalising goal to bring back the Gunners into the game. Fellow Brazilian, Gabriel Martinelli came off the bench as he eased his way through the United defence to second and winning goals for Arsenal to secure their first win in their time at the Stateside.

United did get the ball in the net in stoppage time when Jonny Evans headed in, however, a couple of attackers bundled into Arsenal's goalkeeper, Hein in the process and the goal was ruled out as a foul.

In a pre-decided penalty shootout took place, which saw United win the game 4-3. Fabio Vieira and Scott McTominay netted the opening two kicks, Onana denied Havertz's from the penalty spot and when Jonny Evans netted from 12 yards, Jakub Kiwor steered his effort wide of the target to put United in the ascendency.

Ethan Wheatley then also dragged his attempt off target to give us hope, but after Martinelli, Christian Eriksen and Gabriel all scored, Jadon Sancho scored the decisive penalty to give Manchester United the victory on penalties.
