Havertz picks Champions League final goal as favourite Arsenal strike

Arsenal forward Kai Havertz has revealed that his goal in last season's Champions League final against Paris Saint-Germain is his favorite since joining the club, despite the team's loss. The German scored the opening goal in the match, putting Arsenal ahead after just six minutes. Although Arsenal ultimately lost the final, Havertz described the moment as the best feeling he has ever experienced on a football pitch, citing the emotional response after the goal, celebration, and goosebumps.

He also named his goal against Burnley on the final day of the previous season as his second favorite Arsenal goal, as it marked the team's Premier League title win. Havertz has continued his strong form this season, scoring in three of Arsenal's first four competitive matches, including against Manchester City in the Community Shield and Chelsea, putting him level with captain Martin Odegaard as the club's leading scorer so far.
