Olivier Giroud scored a contender for goal of the season as Arsenal started 2017 with a 2-0 win over Crystal Palace at the Emirates.
The Frenchman's scorpion-like kick from Alexis Sanchez's cross went in off the underside of the crossbar in the 17th minute to hand the hosts a deserved lead in world-class fashion.
Alex Iwobi doubled the scoreline 11 minutes into the second half, seeing his looping header creep in off Joel Ward.
Arsenal are still nine points behind Chelsea in the race for the title, while Sam Allardyce's Palace remain 17th, two points from safety.
