WATCH: Steven N'Zonzi Casually Scores A Wonder Against Arsenal

Former Stoke City and Blackburn Rovers midfielder Steven N'Zonzi scored an absolute peach of a goal as Sevilla beat Arsenal at the Emirates.

The Frenchman has been heavily linked with a move away from the La Liga side but was in the starting xi for the 2-1 win over the Gunners in day two of the Emirates Cup.

And he proved to be the match winner when he casually curled in a sensational left-footed striker into Petr Cech's far corner in the 68th minute.

The ball drops to him 25 yards out and N'Zonzi lets rip with an inch-perfect strike with his supposedly weaker foot. Right in the middle of a Mexican wave as well. What a bloke.

Here's how Twitter reacted:

A real gem of a goal.

The strike from N'Zonzi would maintain Sevilla's 100 per cent record in the Emirates Cup after their 1-0 win over Leipzig.

However, because of the nature of the competition, which rewards a point for every goal scored, Sevilla were pipped to the Emirates Cup trophy by hosts Arsenal. The two teams were level on points, but the Gunners took it on goals scored.
