Jack Wilshere scored his first club goal in two-and-a-half years as Arsenal rounded off the Europa League group stage with an emphatic 6-0 thrashing of BATE Borisov.
Wilshere, who is pushing for more regular playing time in the Premier League and hoping to catch Gareth Southgate's eye ahead of next summer's World Cup, delighted the Emirates Stadium crowd with a man-of-the-match performance in the No 10 role.
His powerful finish shortly before half-time came after Mathieu Debuchy and Theo Walcott had given Arsenal a commanding lead, and the Gunners, who had already clinched their place in the last-32 as Group H winners, continued in the same vein after the break.
BATE defender Denis Polyakov turned a Walcott cross into his own net for the fourth, with Olivier Giroud scoring from the penalty spot before Mohamed Elneny rounded off the scoring with a fine curler.
