Oleksandr Zinchenko has described a north London pub as one of his “favourite corners” of the capital after he went viral celebrating with Arsenal fans.
After last week’s win over Crystal Palace, the Ukrainian defender was filmed by his partner rolling down the window and cheering out of the window as he drove past.
The moment prompted delight from the Arsenal supporters watching on from the street, as well as those online, with Zinchenko explaining that he regularly drives past the spot on his way home from the Emirates Stadium.
“This is one of my favourite corners in London,” the 26-year-old told the Mail.

“Every time I'm passing this pub – because it's the way to my home – and every time there is a lot of Arsenal fans.
“Every time I try to put my window down and scream because after [a game] I have incredible energy. And you just want to share these emotions with them.”
Arsenal sit eight points clear of Zinchenko’s old club, Manchester City, atop the Premier League table and face Leeds next on April 1, after their player faces England at Wembley with Ukraine.
