Arsenal defender Shkodran Mustafi sent the club’s supporters into a frenzy on social media following his performance in the North London derby against Tottenham on Saturday.

The 25-year-old scored as the Gunners secured an impressive 2-0 victory over their bitter rivals at the Emirates Stadium.

The Germany international opened the scoring with a fantastic header in the first-half before forward Alexis Sanchez made it 2-0 to the hosts before the break.

Mustafi also made a sensational block from Spurs striker Harry Kane just after the interval and another from Son Heung-Min in stoppage time.

Arsenal produced a dominant performance and Spurs failed to create too many clear cut chances throughout the 90 minutes.

The Arsenal faithful were quick to take to social media to praise the defender for his overall display against Tottenham.

Arsenal now find themselves one point behind Tottenham in the league table following a mixed start to the season.

Mustafi has endured a tough start to the early stages of the campaign after suffering a hamstring injury, which has ruled him out of the last four Premier League matches.

The Gunners will look to build on this result when they face FC Cologne in midweek in the Europa League.
