Arsenal star Aaron Ramsey has met an Australian fan who credits the Welshman with turning his life around by scoring the winning goal in the 2014 FA Cup final.

Sydney-based Gunners fan Rohit Padmanabhan was suffering from depression three years ago, following a split from his long-term partner and the death of his grandmother.

But the dark clouds rolled back after Ramsey fired home the winner against Hull City at Wembley, prompting the devoted fan to get a tattoo of his hero on his forearm.
