One eagle-eyed fan realised that her love of the sport was not the reason behind her display of emotion.
He took to social media to point out that the songwriter is actually her son, Louis Dunford.
Sharing a clip of Linda crying at the football game, he wrote: "Louis Dunford’s mother, none other than famous British actress LINDA ROBSON, hearing her son’s Arsenal anthem North London Forever live for the first time."
Fans of the sitcom actress were shocked by the revelation, and flocked to the comments to share their thoughts.

One exclaimed: "I didn’t know that... I had NO clue that was his mother! How insane."
Another added: "Wait what Louis Dunford's mum is from bird of a feather!!! Never knew that was his mum wow, up the Arsenal... Eh? Wasn't she in Eastenders?... Wait a minute, his mum is Linda Robson?"
A third referenced the fact that she is not the only Loose Women star to have a singer for a son, joking: "Finding out Louis Dunford is Linda Robson’s son feels like finding out Matty Healy is Denise Welch’s son all over again."
However, others were left rolling their eyes at those who were clueless about the family connection.

One person groaned: "The amount of people shocked Linda Robson is Louis’s mum...
"I can’t believe: 1) So many Arsenal fans didn’t know Louis Dunford was Linda Robson’s son. 2) Linda Robson’s name other than ‘the woman from Birds of a feather’."
Loose Women gobsmacked as Linda Robson says she broke her bed 'doing the deed'
The mum has opened up about a painful struggle her son went through on Loose Women before, revealing that Louis was diagnosed with PTSD following the death of his friend Ben Kinsella.
Ben's life was devastatingly cut short after being stabbed on a night out by three gang members just as he celebrated the end of his GCSE's.
Linda herself went on to suffer from anxiety after the frightening ordeal.
