AN ARSENAL fan was kicked out of Stamford Bridge after running onto the pitch to celebrate a goal and the club released an app alert telling fans their side had gone in front - only for the header to be disallowed.
Shkodran Mustafi thought he had put the Gunners in front when he headed past Thibaut Courtois.
But he was one of three Arsenal player ruled offside from the set piece and the match ended 0-0.
Mustafi sprinted off celebrating - and an Arsenal fan jumped the advertising hoarding to join in.
However both their celebrations were cut short when it was pointed out the linesman's flag had been raised.
But whereas Mustafi slotted back into Arsenal's back line, the supporter was escorted out of Stamford Bridge.
Pictures showed the Arsenal fan, arms outstretched just like Mustafi, gallivanting on the pitch.
Unfortunately for him that came before three burly stewards got their hands on him and led him out.

Similarly embarrassing for the club was the fact they released an alert sent out to mobile phones telling fans they had taken the lead.
The message said Mustafi was the goalscorer in the 75th minute.
