Fans can’t believe the number of empty seats at Arsenal as club insist 58,101 tickets sold for Qarabag dead rubber
Gunners were taking on the Azerbaijani minnows in what was a dead rubber for both sides - and the lack of fans showed it
ARSENAL’S clash against Qarabag tonight has left fans wondering if the Emirates Stadium has ever been quieter.
The Gunners were taking on the Azerbaijani minnows in what was a total dead rubber for both sides – and the lack of fans showed it.
Arsenal had already qualified for the knockout stages while Qarabag had been eliminated, but supporters have still made jokes on Twitter.
In fact, the attendance was rumoured to be only around the 21,000-mark – well shy of its 60,260 capacity.
Incredibly, club officials marked the attendance down as 58,101 for the game.
While most made jokes at Arsenal’s expense, many took the opportunity to take a swipe rivals Tottenham, for their inability to sell out Wembley.
Here’s what social media had to say on the quiet night in North London…
