A stunning scissor kick by Olivier Giroud set Arsenal on its way to a 2-1 win at Crystal Palace and a first victory of the Premier League season on Sunday.

Giroud put Arsenal ahead in the 16th when the France striker met Mesut Ozil's left-wing cross with a flying left-foot volley into the bottom corner. Joel Ward equalized with a drilled shot inside the far post from meters in the 28th, but the Palace right back was beaten in the air by Alexis Sanchez, whose header was turned into the net by the stretching Delaney.
