By scoring in the 3-1 victory against Bayern, Gabriel Martinelli extended Arsenal's unbeaten run to 56 goals in 50 matches, leading the club and placing them in the top 5 of the Premier League.
Gabriel Martinelli scored again in Arsenal's 3-1 victory over Bayern Munich in the Champions League, extending his record-breaking run at the club: every time the Brazilian scores, the team doesn't lose. Across all competitions, Martinelli's 56 goals came in 50 matches, resulting in 41 wins and 9 draws — a milestone unmatched in the club's 137-year history.
The big moment called for Martinelli.
Martinelli's burst of speed and sharp finishing have allowed him to consistently make his mark since joining Arsenal from Ituano in 2019. He scored a brace in a memorable debut against Nottingham Forest, a solo run from his own half to score against Chelsea — a goal that earned him the 2019/20 "Goal of the Season" award — and the winning goal that helped Arsenal beat Real Madrid at the Bernabeu in 2025.
The numbers speak for themselves.
In all 56 goals he has scored for Arsenal, Martinelli has never left the pitch empty-handed. The ranking of "Players who have scored for Arsenal without losing a match in all competitions" shows Martinelli leading with 50 games. The records from the 80s and 90s of Lee Dixon, Perry Groves, and Ray Parlour (all with 26 games) have been surpassed in a short period of time.

The scene inside the Arsenal dressing room.

Premier League: A place between records
In the Premier League, Gabriel Jesus remains at the top with 62 unbeaten matches in which he scored, including 15 matches after joining Emirates in the summer of 2022. Martinelli's record stands at 38 matches (30 wins, 8 draws), ranking 5th all-time in this category.
The impact extends beyond mere numbers.
The unbeaten run whenever Martinelli scores reflects both his talent and consistent form, and underscores his influence at Emirates over several seasons. At 24, the Brazilian winger is a shining star for Arsenal and one of the names that has left a lasting mark on the club's history. More importantly, each of his goals is usually accompanied by a sense of security: Arsenal don't lose when Martinelli scores.
