Hector Bellerin has continued to tease Arsenal fans over his first-team return with a delightful assist for the club’s U23s side over the weekend.
The Spaniard, who made his return in the Carabao Cup last Tuesday, stepped up his recovery by featuring in a 2-2 draw against Liverpool in the Premier League 2.
Running down the right, Bellerin controlled the ball excellently in his stride before playing a pass across goal for Folarin Balogun to tap home.
These Arsenal fans on social media have been loving the assist.

Read Arsenal verdict
Bellerin is proving that he hasn’t lost any speed during his long absence off the pitch.
It was a great piece of skill from the Spaniard and it just highlights what a boost he will be to the first-team squad once he is fully fit.
Arsenal shouldn’t be looking to rush him. After so long out, they would rue the decision to force him back into the team ahead of schedule and risk any further damage.
