Addressing the incident while speaking to Sky Sports after the north London derby, Aaron Ramsdale said;

“The Spurs fans gave me some throughout the game. I was giving some back.

“The people I did give it to greeted it sportsmanlike but one fan tried to give me a little punch on the back.

“It is a shame as it is just a game of football at the end of the day. Both sets of players tried to bring me away but thankfully nothing too drastic happened.

“It is a sour taste but I’m sure we will enjoy it when we go back into the dressing room.”

The win has now seen the Gunners claim an astonishing eight points gap on top of the table and will face Manchester United in their next game. 

Manchester City have a tough challenge to close the eight points gap, and will count on Manchester United to complete a double against the Gunners.

Mikel Arteta have now completed a double over Tottenham in this season London derby, and Arsenal’s Premier League title credentials is now undisputable.
