A Tottenham supporter was arrested for throwing a banana skin at Arsenal and Gabonese striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang after he scored during north London derby on Sunday.

The Metropolitan Police confirmed there were seven arrests made and one arrested was a Tottenham fan who hurled banana skin onto the pitch as Aubameyang celebrated scoring an early penalty in front of the Tottenham fans.

The moment the piece of fruit was seen hurling through the air was captured by photographers at the stadium.

There were also six arrests for public order offences, and two are believed to be Arsenal supporters who lit smoke canisters during the match, according to Mail Online Sport.

Tottenham are likely to face a disciplinary action for 'fan racism' after the incident.

The game ended 4 - 2, with Arsenal snatching all the three points in the fierce game.

But the truth be told.
It's the racism that goes on in the stadium that brings the fun to live football matches.
I just feel sad how players like Balotteli and Evra handle it.

Racism will forever remain a part of football as long as blacks and coloured people play.
Let's accept it and be happy with it.

But come on you Gunners this post here is for all of you. We are not 4-2nate, we are great.
COYG!
