Arsenal fans were sent into a frenzy after being fooled by rumours that West Ham had equalised against Man City on Sunday afternoon.
Gunners supporters were well aware that a draw between City and the Hammers would leave them in the driving seat to clinch the Premier League title on the final day.
That looked extremely unlikely after Phil Foden scored a quick-fire brace in the first-half however a sensational Mohammed Kudus strike pulled one back for the visitors.
Despite West Ham still trailing by a goal, Arsenal fans were seen wildly cheering their side on and holding up a ‘2-2’ score-line with their fingers as rumours spread.
In a clip that appeared on TNT Sports, one supporter was particularly enthusiastic as she cheered on the Gunners – who were drawing 1-1 with Everton at the time.

However, in actuality, West Ham were still trailing 2-1 and it remained that way until half-time. Shortly after the break, City extended their lead after a strike from Rodri.
Heading into the final day of the season, it was all to play for as Manchester City lead by one point in the race for the Premier League title.
Arsenal were hopeful that if they beat Everton and City were unable to best West Ham, that they would claim their first top-flight title in 20 years.
However, their dreams were dampened after Foden put Man City 1-0 ahead against West Ham with a sensational strike.
The attacking midfielder netted a stunning goal to set Pep Guardiola‘s side on their way to a fourth successive Premier League title.
Foden quickly made it two as he swept home Jeremy Doku’s cross to lift the roof off The Etihad.
However, Kudus pulled a goal back on the stroke of half-time for West Ham to give Gunners fans hope and lift the atmosphere again at the Emirates.
