Kieran Tierney netted for Arsenal this evening as the Gunners continue their pre-season.
The left-back volleyed home an Emile Smith-Rowe delivery to put his side 3-1 up against Watford at London Colney.
The behind closed doors friendly took place amid pouring rain but fans joked on social media that KT does his best work under difficult weather conditions.

And he scored - albeit from basically the goal line - to prove their point.
Arsenal won 4-1 in the end thanks to Tierney and goals from Eddie Nketiah, Alexander Lacazette and youngster Miguel Azeez.
Former Celtic man Tierney's goal came just a short while after manager Mikel Arteta was forced to walk onto the pitch to stop the Scotland cap squaring up with an opposing player.
