An Arsenal fan hired a small plane and went to London to watch his team’s game against Tottenham on Saturday, coupled with a strike that had broken out among railway workers, causing the change of dates and the cancellation of many flights, since the number of strikers reached about 40 thousand.
One of the fans told his colleague who made that trip, according to global website Goal, via a “WhatsApp” conversation that has spread like wildfire in recent hours: “I can’t believe you took a plane to attend the match.”
Arsenal beat Tottenham Hotspur by 1/3 in the ninth round of the English Premier League. Arsenal opened the scoring in the 20th minute through Thomas Partey’s shell and Harry Kane equalized with a penalty kick in the 31st minute, ending the first half between them in a 1-1 draw.
4 minutes after the start of the second half, Gabriel Jesus scored another goal for Arsenal, taking advantage of the mistake of the duo Christian Romero and Hugo Lloris, then Granit Xhaka capped Arsenal’s hat-trick in the 67th minute, ending the game with a score of 1/3 in favor of the Gunners.
During the match, Tottenham’s Emerson Royal was sent off in the 62nd minute after a violent intervention on Gabriel Martinelli. Arsenal kept their grip on the top of the English Premier League table with 21 points collected from 8 games, won 7 games, and lost one, while Tottenham remained in third place with 17 points collected from the same number of games, with five wins, two draws, and one loss.
