Former Aston Villa striker Gabby Agbonlahor has taken back his comments regarding Arsenal ’s post-match celebrations after being put in his place by Laura Woods. Agbonlahor accused the Gunners of celebrating “like they’d won the Champions League ” after their 1-0 away victory against his former side.
Bukayo Saka’s first half goal saw Mikel Arteta’s side strengthen their grip on fourth position, extending the gap separating themselves and Tottenham Hotspur to three points. It was an understandably huge result for the north Londoners who were bouncing back from a humbling 2-0 home defeat to Liverpool in their previous fixture.
But their celebrations were deemed unpalatable by Agbonlahor who ripped into the Gunners by stating they were not “not qualified for it”. However, an on-air verbal assassination from Woods has prompted the 35-year-old to take back his harsh criticism.
