Arsenal fans spot referee flipping CREDIT CARD instead of coin before PSG clash - here's why he did

The clash in Singapore is the latest in the International Champions Cup, with huge names from across the world facing off

Arsenal continue their preparations for the new campaign against French champions PSG in Singapore.

It means Unai Emery faces a reunion with his former club as his players continue to work towards their Premier League opener with Man City.
The clash in Singapore is the latest in the International Champions Cup, with huge names from across the world facing off.

And ahead of Arsenal's encounter with PSG, there was an incredible bizarre moment as the two teams prepared for kick-off.

Skippers Mesut Ozil and Adrien Rabiot shook hands and waited for the usual coin toss - except no coin emerged.

Instead, a tournament official pulled out a credit card and flipped that instead.
Had the referee forgotten to take a coin? Or was he just being flash?

Well, the truth is the competition is in fact sponsored by Union Pay International - who provide banking services in the Far East.
