Hector Bellerin showed bags of desire late in the game on Thursday night to beat Cologne’s defence to a rebound and slot the ball beyond Timo Horn for our third and final goal.
The Spaniard’s first goal of the season rounded off a fine comeback that started when Sead Kolasinac came off the bench to rifle in a volley.

on an important win…
Definitely. It’s a new competition for us and we knew we needed to set the tone. We think we’re one of the best teams in the competition, so we have to show that on the pitch.
