Aaron Ramsdale breaks silence on Richarlison altercation during Arsenal's North London Derby win

Arsenal goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale has finally spoken about his altercation with Tottenham Hotspur forward Richarlison during January's North London Derby.

The Gunners secured a 2-0 victory away to their arch-rivals thanks to a Hugo Lloris own goal and a long-range Martin Odegaard strike. But the match was marred by an incident involving Ramsdale and Richarlison that saw the Brazilian international confront the young 'keeper after taking exception to his celebrations on the full-time whistle.

Eventually, there was a large altercation between both sets of players before a Spurs supporter, who had jumped up on the advertising hoarding, kicked out at Ramsdale. Richarlison explained his side of the story immediately after the match, admitting that he was frustrated by the exuberant celebration from the away side.
