Speaking about the goal, Rice said: “We were trying to score from a corner and I think I controlled the ball with my chin and scored, it was a really special moment. If it was me, I would have crossed the ball, but at the end of the game, there was very little between us. Arsenal is a big club and you will feel the pressure, but I will try to perform and I am eager to learn and improve and to get to the next level. Everyone here is great, I enjoy talking and laughing with them, I have fitted in well and everyone has made me feel welcome.”
