Arsenal is enduring one of the best seasons in the Premier League right now. The club is currently enjoying the top spot in the Premier League. The same kind of performance was expected from them to show in Europe; however, things took a drastic turn for them.

Last night, the Premier League giants lost the Europa League battle against Sporting CP. After playing a 2-2 draw in the first leg, the Gunners yet again played a 1-1 draw against the Portuguese side.

A goal from Xhaka gave a lead to Arteta’s side, however, a 62nd-minute strike from Pedro Goncalves gave Sporting a lifeline. A red card to Manuel Ugarte in extra time wasn’t much use as neither side could put the ball in the back of the net.

Hence, the Londoners lost 3-5 on penalties as Gabriel Martini was denied by former Atletico Madrid man Antonio Adan.

Arsenal out of Europe as fans slam Kim Kardashian and KSI’s Prime

It was indeed a dreadful night for Arsenal, who failed to qualify for the next round. However, during the match, they hosted a special guest in the Emirates last night. Famous socialite and billionaire Kim Kardashian also came there to show support for the London side.

However, what could have been an appreciative stance shown by Kardashian turned into a nightmare, as netizens are blaming the American celebrity for Arsenal’s loss.

Moreover, many are even blaming a famous internet celebrity, KSI, and his famous drink venture, Prime.

What was Kim doing at the Emirates?

Kim must be downhearted after receiving such hate from the soccer world. However, many are wondering why she made an appearance at the Emirates. It is because the celebrity was in town to film a documentary at the stadium.
