17 things we loved this weekend: Sancho, Neymar, Rashford, Lacazette

We’re not sure what was in the water around Europe this weekend, but there seemed to be a ludicrous amount of brilliant goals scored across the continent.

In the Premier League we were treated to not one but two seven-goal thrillers, while there was also the small matter of Arsenal vs Chelsea.

We’ve rounded up the best of the action on and off the pitch.

Jadon Sancho

Before we get to all the goals, Sancho really is a ridiculous amount of fun.

Luis Muriel

Bloody hell.

Luis Muriel, again

Bloody hell, again. It was his debut, by the way.

Gaston Ramirez

Remember him?

Arkadiusz Milik

Honestly, Serie A was good fun this weekend.

Alexandre Lacazette

That’s a good goal, that is.

Marcus Rashford

That’s also a very good goal, that is.

Casemiro

And another! We enjoyed this one so much Tom Victor dedicated an entire article to it.

Robin van Persie

He’s still got it.

Diego Jota

A last-minute winner to complete your hat-trick, but that pass from Ruben Neves. Woof.

Kasper Schmeichel

And Neves almost added another wondergoal to his collection.

Salomon Rondon

Neil Warnock would not have approved of this kind of sportsmanship.

Neymar

You can afford to do this when you’re on your way to a 9-0 win.

Neymar tem recurso pra tudo! 🤷🏾‍♂️ pic.twitter.com/Nz7STbtmVF

Matteo Guendouzi

A nice summation of the Arsenal midfielder.

I like Guendouzi. He is, in the best sense, a bit of an arsehole. Arsenal haven’t had a good arsehole for some time. They’ve had dickheads. But that’s not the same thing.

Alireza Beiranvand

A massive f*ck off throw from the Iran goalkeeper. Nice one.

Thierry Henry

A night Titi will want to forget.

Thierry Henry's Saturday night:

😯 Told Strasbourg player Kenny Lala his grandma's a whore
😡 Launched an attack on VAR
🤦🏻‍♂️ Saw Monaco lose 5-1 at home to Strasbourg. pic.twitter.com/tWgJm8LrM1

Onel Hernandez

It’s fitting a Norwich City player should provide such an #AccidentalPartridge.

Onel Hernandez's favourite things about Norwich is spectacular. Missed opportunity to call it a 'Fine City' though #NCFC #Norwich pic.twitter.com/oYBpL6sEUT
