Neto has become Arsenal’s oldest debutant in 110 years.
The Brazilian goalkeeper has had to bide his time for his first Gunners outing since joining on loan from Bournemouth last summer.

But due to a slight injury picked up by first-choice goalkeeper David Raya, Neto was chosen to start between the sticks in Arsenal’s final Champions League clash away at Girona.
The former Barcelona shot-stopper’s first appearance for the north London outfit has come at the age of 35 years and 194 days.
He is the club’s oldest debutant since Ned Liddell in April 1915, who was 36 years and 310 days old.
