Arsenal Players Filmed Shockingly Ignoring Young Mascot Before Norwich Game

Arsenal players have been filmed completely blanking a young mascot before their game against Norwich City on Sunday afternoon.

The mascot was set to greet the Arsenal squad as they arrived at Carrow Road but every player walked straight past the young lad.

Fans on Twitter were shocked at the behaviour of Arsenal's squad.

The chairman of Epping FC has also replied to the tweet inviting the young boy to be a mascot at one of their games.

Calum Chambers posted a series of photos on Twitter disputing the claims and showed some of Arsenal's first team meeting the mascot after the game.

On the pitch, the game was full of incident and ended 2-2.

Daniel Farke's side took the lead twice but Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's brace salvaged a point in Freddie Ljungberg's first game in charge.

Ljungberg told Football.London following the game:

"Of course I was proud and honoured to be allowed to stand there on the touchline and lead this great club.

"If we look at the game, truly we started well. We dominated totally, found pockets of space and created chances. I would have expected us to take the lead."

Ljungberg is currently caretaker manager after Unai Emery's sacking on Friday morning.
