And if anything, the Londoner looked even happier than her partner - at least until Scott headed onto the pitch afterwards with arms wide open as if she was still a player.
It looked like an explosion of joy and relief, perhaps having lived every minute with the current Gunners as they defended brilliantly before conjuring a clinical 72nd-minute winner.

Donegal sensation Mark English smashes another Irish record on the track
Mark English claimed his third outdoor track triumph of the season and became the first Irishman to break 1:44 for 800m at the FBK Games in Hengelo. English, 32, produced another scintillating finish to cross the line in first place ahead of France's Yanis Meziane and Australia's Peyton Craig after sitting off the early pace at the event in the Netherlands, thus franking his recent strong form. The Donegal star clocked a new national record time of 1:43.92, bettering his previous best of 1:44.34 set 10 days ago in Bydgoszcz - both events were part of the World Athletics Continental Tour Gold series. The Finn Valley athlete was also victorious in the Running Track Fest meet in LA last month. English trained at altitude after winning his fifth and latest European medal - in the indoors in Apeldoorn in March - and that work is paying off. 'It felt great,' said English of his latest success. 'I just wanted to run that race like a semi-final and I managed to do that. I stayed off the pace early and when I got to 600 I felt really good. 'I could see them fading and when I'm in good shape, I can always understand what the commentators are saying and I could hear him say there would be some tired legs in the home straight, it was nice to hear that. I thought I could catch them with about 80 metres left.' English is hoping this is only the start of a spectacular summer, with the World Athletics Championships in Tokyo to come in September. Earlier in the evening Orla Comerford (Raheny Shamrock AC) won the Para Athletics Women's 100m in a season's best time of 11.96 seconds (-1.2m/s), which is just 0.06 seconds off the Paralympic bronze medallist's personal best.

Manchester City sign Wolves left-back for £31m
MANCHESTER CITY HAVE completed the signing of left-back Rayan Ait-Nouri from Wolves. The 24-year-old Algeria international has signed a five-year contract at the Etihad Stadium after the clubs agreed a fee of £31million. He becomes City's first major signing of the summer, with AC Milan midfielder Tijjani Reijnders also set to join. Ait-Nouri will be eligible for the upcoming Club World Cup later this month, with City also looking to get Reijnders done in time. 'I am incredibly happy and honoured to have joined Manchester City. City are one of the biggest clubs in the world and the chance to play for the club is a dream come true,' he said. Advertisement 'I am also so excited about working with and learning from Pep (Guardiola) and his coaching team and getting to train and play alongside such a world class group of players. 'I'm young and I came here to improve a lot. I need to learn and improve my football for sure – it's why I chose this big challenge. 'I know I can improve my football and being in these kind of conditions with this team and this manager, for sure I will improve my football.' 'Rayan is a player that as a club we have been following closely for quite some time and we are delighted he has joined us,' said director of football Hugo Viana. 'He already has extensive Premier League experience and has also demonstrated his quality at international level with Algeria. 'We feel sure that he will be an excellent addition to our squad and that working alongside Pep and his coaching staff will help develop his game even further. 'And at just 24 he is someone we feel sure will help us in our objective to bring more success to the club.' Veteran goalkeeper Scott Carson is to leave the club when his contract expires this summer. The 39-year-old made just two senior appearances in a six-year stint but was involved in squads that collected 12 trophies, including the Champions League in 2023. Ait-Nouri has spent five years at Wolves, initially arriving on loan from Angers before signing permanently for £14.9m in 2021. He is City's first left-back specialist since Benjamin Mendy, who played his final game for the club almost four years ago. Oleksandr Zinchenko, Joao Cancelo, Nathan Ake, Josko Gvardiol and – most recently – Nico O'Reilly have been among the players to fill the position since.

Mark English smashes Irish record to win 800m in the Netherlands in stunning fashion
'It's a brilliant day,' he said. 'I always wanted to get the win and run 1:43 – I managed those two things today.' His time brought him home well clear of France's Yanis Meziane and Australia's Peyton Craig, who both clocked 1:44.32, with English making up huge ground over the final 200m, having sat off the pace over the first 400m, which was covered by the pacer in 49.20 seconds. His time smashed the Irish record of 1:44.34 which he set in Bydgoszcz, Poland last month, English scoring his second victory of the season at a World Athletics Continental Tour Gold meeting. He will race next over 800m on Thursday night at the Oslo Diamond League, where Rhasidat Adeleke will also be in action over 400m. 'It felt great,' he said of the win in Hengelo. 'I just wanted to run that race like a semi-final and I managed to do that. I stayed off the pace early and when I got to 600 I felt really good. 'I could see them fading and when I'm in good shape, I can always understand what the commentators are saying and I could hear him say there would be some tired legs in the home straight, it was nice to hear that. I thought I could catch them with about 80 metres left.' English won his fifth European medal back in March, a bronze at the European Indoors in the Dutch town of Apeldoorn, and he has improved his fitness since following a five-week block of training in Flagstaff, Arizona. 'I went away training at altitude with my coach Justin Rinaldi, that went really well,' he said. 'All these times and wins take a massive team so I do want to thank everyone who helped me get here today. So many people have helped me achieve that.'
