One Arsenal fan clearly wanted to capture the moment that Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang made sure of three points against Manchester United on video but first he needed two of the substitutes to get out of the way.
Somehow whenever you go to a gig there’s always someone miles taller than you standing directly in front of you, it’s like some weird phenomena that not even science can explain.
That’s usually the advantage of sitting at a football game, sure the atmosphere might not be as good as the days of having terraces but at least you can see over the person sitting in the row in front of you.
When you are on the front row you’d think there was even less chance of having your view obscured but that wasn’t the case for one Arsenal fan on Sunday afternoon.
The fan found himself staring at the back of substitutes Matteo Guendouzi and Alex Iwobi as Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang stepped up to take his penalty against Manchester United, fortunately they managed to get the subs to duck:
Aubameyang’s penalty was controversial as many thought that the foul by Fred that led to the spot kick was a bit soft but the Gunners certainly won’t care.
Unai Emery’s team were the better side in the first half when Granit Xhaka put them ahead with a long range goal, thanks in part to a strange mistake by David de Gea.
United twice hit the woodwork in the first half and had most of the possession in the second period but couldn’t find the back of the net.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer suffered his first league defeat and the win put Arsenal into fourth and now just one point behind third place Spurs.
