A man has been charged with allegedly kicking Aaron Ramsdale in the wake of Arsenal's 2-0 win against Spurs in the north London derby on Sunday.

After an impressive display for the Gunners between the sticks, goalkeeper Ramsdale was met by a fan as he went to collect his bottle from behind the goal.

The supporter lashed out and appeared to make contact with the England international, who admitted after the match that the incident left a 'sour taste' following his Man of the Match display.
