An emotional night at the Emirates Stadium had more meaning than just goals and three points, as Arsenal’s two Gabriels, Gabriel Jesus and Gabriel Magalhães, delivered powerful personal messages after their goals against Aston Villa.
Both players found the back of the net in a crucial Premier League clash, but it was their celebrations that truly caught global attention.
After scoring, Gabriel Jesus removed his Arsenal shirt to reveal a vest reading “I BELONG TO JESUS”, a clear declaration of his Christian faith. The moment instantly drew comparisons to AC Milan legend Kaká, who famously wore the same message during his iconic career.
For Jesus, it wasn’t just a celebration, it was a moment of gratitude. The Brazilian forward has endured injury setbacks, doubts over form, and immense pressure in recent seasons. On a night when he rediscovered his scoring touch, the message felt deeply personal.
At the other end of the pitch, Gabriel Magalhães also delivered a heartfelt gesture. The centre-back, who recently returned from injury, celebrated his goal with a message that read: “All honor & glory to God.”
