Arsenal's 2-0 home defeat by Liverpool was very nearly briefly paused after a protester tried to attach himself to the goalpost mid-way through the second-half.
Referee Andre Marriner was forced to delay a Liverpool goal-kick for a few seconds after a young man donning a t-shirt that read "just stop oil" and "we have no future" emerged from the Emirates crowd and onto the pitch to try and tie his own hands around the frame of the goal. Stewards rushed on and swiftly dealt with the matter, dragging the protester away from the goal before play continued.
The activist hardly put up much of a fight as he was bundled over the advertising hoardings and actually appeared to just look resigned to the fact his stunt had failed to go as planned. It remains unclear if the protest was done in the name of any particular group or organisation.
