A goal down and chasing the game, Arsene Wenger did the done thing and sent renowned penalty box poacher Mathieu Flamini on for the last ten minutes against Barcelona last night in the hunt for a last-gasp equaliser.
Sadly, the plan slightly backfired when the French midfielder’s very first involvement in the game was to hack down Lionel Messi and concede a penalty.
It all proved too much for Arsenal fan and retired Olympic heptathlete Kelly Sotherton, who proceeded to use her javelin arm to wang her television remote right through the screen…
Just smashed up the TV #AFCvFCB

Photographic proof was then provided by her friend…

Sotherton then went on to rant:
Two stupid mistakes that you can never ever do against Barca. Gutted. So is my TV!
We foresee a rather rueful trip to Currys this morning.
