Gabriel Martinelli ended a memorable evening by celebrating with his father, Joao, after Arsenal's last-gasp 4-3 win over Luton on Tuesday night.
Martinelli opened the scoring at Kenilworth Road in the 20th minute but Gabriel Osho leveled Luton five minutes later and the hosts twice went ahead through Elijah Adebayo and Ross Barkley either side of a Gabriel Jesus equalizer.
Arsenal hit back on the hour mark through Kai Havertz, before Declan Rice emerged to head home the winner in the 97th minute, sparking jubilant scenes in the away leg.
As the final whistle blew, Martinelli spotted his father in the crowd and joined him to celebrate as Mikel Arteta's men moved five points clear to the top of the table.
Martinelli posted a video on social media of himself with his father and wrote: 'A goal and a last minute winner with your father in the away match? Perfect.'

Martinelli was seen hugging his father before posing for a photo with him alongside a host of delighted Gunners fans.
Martinelli's father had certainly picked a good match to attend as Arsenal left the match too late before securing all three points.
Scoring crucial late goals has become a habit for the North London club this season as they have now scored winners in the last ten minutes against Manchester City, Brentford and Luton, while also needing an 84th minute goal to earn a point at Chelsea in October.
Martinelli's first-half strike was his second league goal of the season, adding to the two goals he scored in the Champions League to help Arsenal reach the knockout stages of the competition.
It remains to be seen whether Martinelli Sr will be present for Arsenal's next match when they travel to high-flying Aston Villa on Saturday.
Martinelli has fond memories of Villa Park after scoring deep into extra time on his last visit there to complete a 4-2 win for Arsenal in February.
