An Arsenal fan has been branded a hero by his fellow supporters after he was seen proudly showing off his shirt in the Tottenham end after purchasing the wrong ticket.

The Australian man had flown in from Sydney on Saturday without realising that his ticket for the big game was in the Spurs section.

The Gunners picked up a huge three points with Bukayo Saka and Kai Havertz on the scoresheet in a 3-2 victory against their biggest rivals.

And the fan couldn't resist unzipping his jacket to reveal his Arsenal shirt with the away fans below loving every second of it.

The visiting supporters cheered him on, chanting 'we are the Arsenal, we sit where we want'.

He said: 'I just got off a plane last night from Sydney, Australia. I came straight to Tottenham's stadium. 

'I bought my ticket in Sydney. I didn't realise I was in the Tottenham section. 

'Obviously we win 3-2. I go up to the barrier and I see all the Arsenal fans and I couldn't help myself. I honestly couldn't help myself.'
