ARSENAL fans have been drooling over “ice cold” Vivianne Miedema – after the Dutch international scored a wondergoal against Reading and barely celebrated.
The 24-year-old took social media by storm after bending a brilliant strike into the near corner in the Gunners’ 6-1 thrashing of the Royals.

The Dutch international found the net twice as Arsenal thrashed Reading 6-1
She walked off casually after scoring the wonder-strike and barely celebrated
Miedema was last season’s WSL top scorer, hitting 16 goals before the league was curtailed amid the coronavirus crisis
The deadly Dutch striker netted twice on Sunday, after Kim Little got the first for the three-time WSL champions, while Jill Roord completed a hat-trick.
And fans were left in hysterics when the unfazed Netherlands ace casually walked off after scoring her second goal like nothing had happened.
A fan wrote on Twitter: “Please when will she celebrate her goals.”
Another jokingly said: “Ice cold.”
One roared: “For Vivianne, it’s like a walk in the park…what a strike.”
While another fan added: “Cold blooded.”
And one wrote: “A nice strike. She doesn’t even look concerned, normal day in the office.”
Miedema was last season’s WSL top scorer after hitting 16 before the top-flight was axed amid the coronavirus crisis.
And if her performance against Reading is anything to go by, she could easily be in contention for the award again.
Reading’s Danielle Carter grabbed a late consolation when she stole the ball off Gunners keeper Manuela Zinsberger.
Ballon d’Or winner Miedema made headlines last season for netting SIX and adding four assists in the Gunners 11-1 drubbing of Bristol City.
However, Arsenal were knocked off their perch last term as they failed to retain their title after finishing third in the table.
The season was axed in May and determined on points-per-game – with the Blues crowned champions and Liverpool relegated.
Elsewhere in the WSL, Manchester United saved a point against Chelsea on Sunday thanks to Leah Galton’s late leveller.
