Arsenal fans were less than pleased after a shock own goal from Jorginho saw them lose their dominant position in a pre-season friendly.

The Gunners were cruising throughout the clash after Bukayo Saka put them 1-0 up against Nurnberg earlier in the contest.

But after several changes were made by Mikel Arteta in the second-half, Karl Hein was deployed in goal, replacing Aaron Ramsdale.

However, the Estonian’s pass to Jorginho in midfield ended in disaster as the Italian was pressured by a Nurnberg player.

On his weak foot, the former Chelsea star tried to pass back to his goalkeeper but it ended up flying past him and in the net from 30 yards in comical fashion.

And Arsenal fans were less than pleased, including this one who said: “Jorginho man am I still gonna have to suffer this again this year.”

Another wrote: “Jorginho own goal from the half line, not the most surprising thing I’ve seen from him.”

While a third posted: “The playbook reads the same: press Jorginho.”

But at least this Arsenal fan saw the funny side, saying: “Jorginho is washed. That’s the funniest OG I’ve ever seen.”
