WHAT HAPPENED?
Arsenal and England star Saka claimed that he once left a Premier League game between Arsenal and Chelsea early back in 2018 and missed his club's late equaliser. He revealed he regrets not watching the game until the full-time whistle.
WHAT BUKAYO SAKA SAID ABOUT THE ARSENAL CLASH
During a Q&A session with Snickers Global, the attacker was asked to rate a situation where a fan leaves the action early to get a hot dog and miss a goal. The Gunners star replied, "That's an 11 actually. I've done that before. It's a bad feeling. I remember leaving Arsenal vs Chelsea early, Hector Bellerin scored a late, late equaliser and I heard it from leaving outside. Some of you gotta think about that one."

The game that Saka recollected was during the 2017/18 season when the player was still an academy player at Arsenal. Jack Wilshere had handed the hosts the lead in the 63rd minute before the visitors restored parity through Eden Hazard's penalty and then they took the lead courtesy of Marcos Alonso's strike. Bellerin then netted a last-gasp equaliser to secure a point. Later in the same year, Saka made his professional debut for the club during the 2018/19 season.
