Lisandro Martinez said it was a "dream" to score his first Manchester United goal, but the central defender was disappointed his side slumped to defeat at Arsenal.
Martinez made it 2-2 in the second half but Eddie Nketiah netted a last-minute winner to give the Gunners all three points and condemn United to a first defeat in 11 games.
Marcus Rashford had initially given United the lead before goals from Nketiah and Bukayo Saka. Martinez then stooped to head in a corner to level the scores in what was an entertaining and high-quality game.

He told MUTV: “It’s a dream to score my first goal for Manchester United, I’m really happy for that. In the end, it was not the result I wanted, but we have to keep going.
“It was amazing [to celebrate with the fans], the fans are incredible, they always support us and are always there for us. The minimum we can do is give everything of us."
United have let three points slip through their fingers this week, conceding a last-minute equaliser to Crystal Palace in midweek and now a winner to Arsenal.
They have struggled to see out positive results in both fixtures and Martinez is aware that is an area for improvement in the side.
“We are disappointed, we want to win the game, sadly we didn’t, we are very disappointed but we’re strong, we have to keep going, keep fighting and go for the next one," he said.
“It was tough, for sure. It was hard. We have to be strong, we have to learn from every experience. It cannot happen again. We have to be really focused on the game and kill the game, we have to win.
“We can win the game today, but this kind of game it’s about details, if you’re not on every detail you can’t win. The last minute you lose the game, you have to be focused. We have to score and kill the game. We can’t do anything now, we have to keep going."
