French legend Thierry Henry only joined the Gunners on loan from US outfit New York Red Bulls late last week and had to be content with a place on the bench to start with, but with the game all square with over an hour played and the crowd chanting for the introduction of their hero, boss Arsene Wenger had little to lose.

And it certainly paid off, as the 77th minute winner was classic Henry, right from the way he collected a pass on the left-hand side of the area with one of his first touches of the game before caressing it with his right foot across the goal and into the far corner.

It's been seen many times before in north London and it was no real surprise to see it happen again, once Alex Song had rolled the ball into space for Henry.

Henry's triumphant return will certainly take the headlines and it saved the night for Wenger too, as up until that moment the game had offered little as a spectacle and Leeds could consider themselves unfortunate not to have earned a replay at Elland Road, just as they did a year ago at the same stage of the competition.

He's totally onside, his right feet is really close to the line, while there's a Leeds player who got lost upside. (btw, wtf this defender is doing)

on side! Keep pausing and playing it from 2.00 to 2.03. You will see for yourself. The defender is inside the box, whilst Henry is behind the line of the box. Great Goal. Barca supporter by the way.
