Arsenal attacker's girlfriend hails his brilliant performance in 2-0 win over Newcastle in her Instagram story
Arsenal forward Gabriel Martinelli’s girlfriend Isabella Rousso has lauded her partner following his stellar display against Newcastle United.
Second-placed Arsenal squared off against third-placed Newcastle United in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon (May 7). Mikel Arteta’s side came out on top, securing a 2-0 win, with Martin Odegaard’s goal and Fabian Schar’s own goal being the difference between the two teams.
Martinelli, who operated as the Gunners’ left winger, was the driving force behind Schar's own goal. His venomous cross for Odegaard forced Schar to react, which led to him poking the ball past a helpless Nick Pope. Martinelli’s performance thrilled his girlfriend Isabella Rousso, who uploaded an Instagram story to hail the attacker.
She shared Arsenal’s Instagram post, showing the scoreline, and added an image underneath, which read: “I believe in Gabriel Martinelli Supremacy.”
Here is what Isabella shared on Instagram:
Before being replaced in the 80th minute, Martinelli completed 12 of 15 passes (80% accuracy), created two chances, and hit the woodwork once. He also completed three dribbles, more than any other player on the pitch.
This season, Martinelli has featured in 45 games for the Gunners across competitions. He has scored 15 goals and provided six assists, emerging as one of the most effective players on the team.
