Arsenal’s Thomas Partey has spoken about his emotional celebration following his stunning goal against Nottingham Forest last weekend. The Ghanaian midfielder scored a powerful long-range strike to help the Gunners secure a dominant 3-0 win in the English Premier League. This goal marked his second of the season, with a similar long-range effort already netted earlier in the campaign against Aston Villa.
After scoring, Partey pointed into the crowd while holding one hand to his mouth. This heartfelt gesture was a tribute to his daughter, born earlier this year with his partner Janine Mackson. The 31-year-old has continued to play a pivotal role for Arsenal, impressing again on Tuesday night as the team triumphed over Sporting Lisbon in the UEFA Champions League.
Partey’s recent performances have underlined his importance to Arsenal, both as a key player in their midfield and as a father. His goal celebrations have now taken on even more significance, as he shares his joy with his family and supporters alike.
