The fan needed Gabriel Martinelli to score first and Arsenal to win 5-0 at Emirates
Mikel Arteta’s squad returned to the top of the Premier League with the win, which came easily as the Gunners dismantled the division’s basement in north London.
Martinelli opened the scoring in the fifth minute, before substitute Reiss Nelson scored a brace in his first appearance of the season to make it 3-0.
Thomas Partey and Martin Odegaard then made it 5-0 in 78 minutes before the YouTube star held his breath for the final period of the match.

But Arsenal answered his pleas and failed to score again, earning McGinley a profit of over £4,000.
He shared a celebration video shot during the full-time whistle, where he can be seen hugging people like KSI while celebrating.
The 33/1 bet caused hysteria among fans on social media, with one supporter tweeting: ‘LOOOL you’ve got it’.
Another asked, “Would you lend me a fiver?” while McGinley’s followers congratulated him on his win under the celebration video captioned, “man like callux the bet king.”
