Watch as Rodri is pelted by bottles after taunting Arsenal fans with celebration as BT Sport apologise for foul language

ARSENAL fans hurled a barrage of rubbish at Manchester City midfielder Rodri after he stole victory for the Premier League champions.

The Spaniard poached the winning goal for City in stoppage time to hand the visitors a 2-1 victory at the Emirates.

An elated Rodri ripped off his top and ran over to celebrate in front of the dejected Arsenal fans.

The corner of the Emirates that he celebrated in front of burst into a rage and fans attempted to pelt the midfielder with bottles and other items.

The crowd threw so many objects at Rodri that they were littered across the corner.

Arsenal’s players and stadium staff quickly cleared the mess before the game got back underway.

Commentator Darren Fletcher said: “The corner where he celebrated is completed full now of objects that have been thrown into that area of the field, a lot of which have been cleared off by the players.

“There we go, there’s the debris that has come raining down from the stands here. Temperatures running, very, very high in the stadium.”

BT Sport’s cameras picked up several swear words from delighted City players and enraged Arsenal fans.

And the broadcaster was forced to apologise for accidentally airing the bad language.

Fletcher said: “If you did hear any bad language that offended you during the last few moments – as you can imagine temperatures are very, very high around where we are as well – we apologise for that.”

City’s smash-and-grab victory in north London extended their lead at the summit of the Premier League to 11 points.

Pep Guardiola’s side fell behind in the 31st minute thanks to a neat finish from England international Bukayo Saka.

The visitors got back on level terms in the 57th minute thanks to a controversially awarded penalty – which Riyad Mahrez buried past Aaron Ramsdale.

Arsenal almost regained the lead in the 59th minute when Gabriel Martinelli hit the post with the goal at his mercy.

Things went from bad to worse for the Gunners went Gabriel was given his marching orders for a second bookable offence.

Mike Arteta’s side battled bravely with ten men until stoppage time, when Rodri capitalised on some lax defending from the home side to tap the ball past a helpless Ramsdale.
