Video: Calafiori completes great week with Arsenal and Italy goals

Riccardo Calafiori is quickly establishing himself as a formidable goal scorer, as he added to his impressive tally of goals this week. Not only did he score his first senior goal for Italy, but he also netted in the Premier League for Arsenal in a recent match.

The left-back has shown promise in his attacking play this season, despite not being particularly prolific in the past. Calafiori had already scored once for Arsenal in the Community Shield against Manchester City, and then scored again in Italy's 3-1 victory over Turkiye in the Nations League.

In today's match against Leeds United, Calafiori capitalized on a knockdown to equalize for Arsenal. This crucial goal sparked a comeback, leading to a 2-1 victory secured by Bruno Guimaraes. Calafiori's contributions to Arsenal are further highlighted by his two assists this season.

With these three goals in all competitions, plus two assists, Calafiori has now scored six goals and made seven assists in his 72 appearances for Arsenal. His recent form demonstrates his growing impact as a player in both Arsenal's and Italy's attack.
