Arsenal supporters react to late equaliser against Wolves
Arsenal supporters completely lost their composure following Wednesday night’s dramatic 2-2 draw at Molineux, where 19-year-old substitute Tom Edozie rescued a point for bottom-placed Wolves in the fourth minute of added time, reports BritPanorama.
The late equaliser triggered chaotic scenes on the pitch as Gabriel Jesus confronted Wolves defender Yerson Mosquera at the final whistle, sparking a wild confrontation between players from both sides.
The fury extended beyond the stadium as AFTV personality Taiwo Ogunlabi, better known as Ty, found himself targeted by home supporters on the streets of Wolverhampton. Wolves fans were filmed heckling the viral Arsenal Fan TV star, reportedly chanting “He’s going to cry in a minute” as he walked through the city.
After reminding the group of their club’s precarious league position, Ty lost his temper and charged towards the singing supporters before being physically restrained by a member of his entourage. The confrontation added to an already volatile evening for the travelling Arsenal contingent, who had watched their side surrender a two-goal advantage against the division’s bottom club in the dying moments of the match.
AFTV presenter Lee Judges delivered some of the most scathing criticism of manager Mikel Arteta’s approach during the match. “I love Mikel but today you have now got to look at yourself,” Judges fumed on the channel. “We were 2-0 up and you have to have a little bit more f***ing b****cks about yourself and go for games instead of sitting back against f**ing Wolves who are bottom of the league and relegated.”
Judges continued his tirade, demanding more attacking intent from the side: “F***ing go for it a bit more, be a bit more positive and a little bit more f***ing creative. We were waiting and wishing for the final whistle with 10 minutes to go and we got exactly what we f***ing deserved tonight.”
Fellow AFTV figure Robbie Lyle, who attended the fixture, expressed his own disillusionment: “The trust that I had, the trust that a lot of fans had, that trust is now gone.” Supporter anger continued to pour out on social media and through AFTV interviews following the final whistle. One furious fan told the channel: “I can’t stand to look at these players. They genuinely make me sick. We’re talking about probably the worst team the Premier League has ever seen.”
One fan on the channel blamed external factors, citing wind gusts of up to 36 miles per hour as a contributing factor. Arsenal won’t have too long to reflect on the disappointing result, with the north London giants due to face Tottenham in a crunch derby clash on Sunday (4.30pm).
Such discontent serves as a reminder that even amidst the glamour of the Premier League, the emotions tied to its clubs remain raw — a headline performance can accomplish what a nine-point lead cannot, especially when the gap between triumph and disaster is merely a moment’s lapse.
