The youngster hooked the ball past Rui Patricio after receiving a deflected cross from Kieran Tierney.
“I know KT, I know where he likes to cross it, when there’s space he crosses behind,” he added.
“I anticipated that the ball was going to come to the edge of the box so I made sure I was there. When I got the ball I knew it was the far post where the gap was going to be and I just guided it there.
“Luckily, it was a good finish and it went in.”
The goal against Wolves is Saka’s first in the Premier League. Earlier this week, the wonderkid committed his future to the Gunners, putting pen to paper on a four-year contract with the North London outfit.
