Arsenal fans are not happy with what they have seen in the new footage from their game against West Ham United.
The Gunners had a 2-0 lead in the first 10 minutes of the game, but they squandered it, allowing the Hammers to equalise and end the game in a draw.
The biggest talking point, however, was Bukayo Saka’s missed penalty in the second half, which could have sealed the game for Arsenal.
In a behind-the-scenes video posted on West Ham’s YouTube channel, Lucas Paqueta could be seen screaming Saka’s name at him during his run-up, presumably to distract him.
Watch the clip below:

This action is illegal according to IFAB’s Law 12, and Arsenal fans have slammed the West Ham star for his unsporting behavior.
The draw means that Arsenal have now dropped four crucial points, and Manchester City are now just four points behind them with a game in hand.
