Gabriel Martinelli is the first Arsenal player to score in five consecutive Champions League games, achieving this feat against Club Brugge.

He has set an all-time Arsenal record with his consecutive goals against Athletic Club, Olympiacos, Atletico Madrid, Bayern Munich, and now Club Brugge.

What happened?

Gabriel Martinelli's inspired form this season has seen him become the joint-third highest goal-scorer in the Champions League with five goals.

Only Victor Osimhen, Erling Haaland, and Kylian Mbappe have scored more goals in the competition.

Why it matters for Gabriel Martinelli

Last season, Gabriel Martinelli's form had petered out, but this season he has cranked it up a gear with the added competition from Eberechi Eze, Viktor Gyokeres, and Noni Maduele.

He thrives when he is not the epicenter of attention and has healthy competition from players like Leandro Trossard.

What comes next?

Arsenal faces Inter Milan in the Champions League, a team that could punish them if they have an off day.

But with players like Gabriel Martinelli, Arsenal has the squad depth they need to succeed, even with injuries piling up.

Gabriel Martinelli might not start every game, but when he does, he is reliable and has set a new standard for Arsenal players in the Champions League.

As of this season, Gabriel Martinelli has become a key player for Arsenal, helping them top the table with three points and conceding the least amount of goals in the league phase.

And with his record-breaking goals, he has reinforced Arsenal's position as one of the top teams in the competition.

But Mikel Arteta will still rely on players like Gabriel Martinelli to step up and make the most of their chances.

So Gabriel Martinelli's performance will be crucial in the upcoming games, including the match against Inter Milan.

Gabriel Martinelli has scored five consecutive Champions League goals, a feat that has never been matched by any other Arsenal player.

This achievement is a testament to his hard work and dedication to the sport.
