Piers Morgan Says! ‘Even Our Mascot is Harder than Tottenham’s’ as Arsenal Kid Pushes Counterparts
A young Arsenal Mascot got into north London derby mode by shoving his Tottenham counterpart ahead of the match.
Mikel Arteta's players returned to the tunnel after completing their pre-match warm-up 15 minutes before kick-off.
Four Tottenham mascots hung out their arms to get high-fives from Arsenal players, with some opting to ignore the youngsters.
Seconds later, they were approached by an Arsenal mascot who gave them a shove and taunted them before he walked away.
Arsenal fans, including Piers Morgan, took to social media to react to the moment.
'Even our mascots are harder than Tottenham’s…', Morgan posted on X alongside laughing emojis.
Another Arsenal fan wrote: 'I love it and you must also commend the composure of the Spurs mascots'.
A third said: 'What a blinder this kid deserves a medal', while a fourth posted: 'This mascot is my hero'.
Ahead of the match, former Gunners striker Paul Merson insisted a make-or-break week awaits Arsenal as they prepare to face Atalanta and Manchester City after the clash with Tottenham.
'I think It’s all or nothing, I do,' Merson said. 'I think they must get four points out of the next two games.
'I think if they don’t, I think playing catch up with Man City, people are going to say there’s 30 odd games left.'
'You’re chasing down one of the best machines, best teams we’ve ever seen, definitely in Premier League history so for me, massive football match this one.
'Don’t worry about Thursday (Atalanta) they’ve got eight of them (CL matches). The next two games are huge and they’ve got injuries and suspensions.'
