It was a case of anything you can do I can do better for Olivier Giroud and Henrikh Mkhitaryan, after the Arsenal striker scored a 'scorpion' flick wonder goal to rival that of the Manchester United play-maker.
Mkhitaryan wrote the headlines on Boxing day with his sublime heel-flicked finish against Sunderland at Old Trafford, but just six days later Arsenal man Giroud went and perfectly copied his heroics during the Gunners' clash with Crystal Palace.
As Giroud's effort crashed in off the underside of the crossbar former pro Gary Neville hailed it as 'one of the best goals i've ever seen.
