Declan Rice had the last laugh after a Tottenham fan threw insults at him as he was taking a corner… only for it to lead to Arsenal’s third goal on Sunday.
The Spurs supporter was seen hurling abuse at the Arsenal midfielder but quickly made his way for the exit as the corner was nodded in by Kai Havertz.
Rice made sure to give some back as he turned and celebrated in the direction of the fan before joining his team-mates.

The home side hit back with Cristian Romero capitalising on a mistake from David Raya before Son Heung-min slotted from the penalty spot after Rice had given away a penalty.
The visitors held on to keep the pressure on Man City, who did their job by beating Nottingham Forest later in the day.
‘I think so,’ the Spaniard replied when asked if Arsenal are better equipped to win the title this time around.
‘When you win it’s always the case. Last season we didn’t because we went to West Ham and we missed a penalty and against Liverpool we conceded in the 91st minute and then you’re not capable.
