Arsenal slammed for having ‘zero class’ after scoring controversial goal against Fulham
ARSENAL have been slammed after their controversial second goal in their 2-2 draw against Fulham at the Emirates.
The Gunners came back after Andreas Pereira broke the deadlock just one minute after kick-off.
The North Londoners equalised with Bukayo Saka's penalty in the 70th minute.
And Mikel Arteta's men turned the game on its head with Eddie Nketiah just two minutes later.
But Arsenal's attack and Nketiah's goal took place while Fulham ace Calvin Bassey was down with an injury.
And fans weren't happy with the way the striker hit the back of the net and lashed out on Twitter.

A third tweeted: "Terrible decision in the Arsenal game! Saka fouls Bassey and gets away with it. Leads to a goal."

That one wrote: "The Arsenal second was a foul on Bassey."
And that Arsenal fan posted: "As much as I like to see us winning this, we should have put the ball out because Bassey is injured. No class at all Arsenal, highly disappointed."
However, Fulham managed to equalise with Joao Palhinha in the 87th minute.
That was four minutes after Bassey was sent off with a second yellow card.
The centre-back was given his marching orders after blocking Nketiah during a counter-attack.
