France Under-21s defeated their counterparts from England last night to give them a brilliant start to the European Championship.

Phil Foden opened the scoring for England before late goals from Nanitamo Ikone and an Aaron Wan-Bissaka own goal ensured French delight.

Arsenal fans were particularly interested in the performance of one man in particular.

Jeff Reine-Adelaide was operating on the right flank for France and he had a decent game.

The 21-year-old joined Angers on loan ahead of the 2017/18 campaign, before Arsenal allowed him to join permanently prior to last season.

His performance last night only served to frustrate the Gunners supporters. Many feel that he was allowed to leave club prematurely.

Having risen through the youth ranks at the Emirates he would play just eight times for the Arsenal first-team, all in cup competitions.

It was something of a kick in the teeth to some Gunners fans when he was allowed to move back to France.

Many were of the opinion that he could have a seriously bright future at the club and he is going some way towards proving the club wrong now.

Arsenal fans took to Twitter last night to vent their anger at the club for allowing him to leave.

We looked at some of the best tweets in response to Reine-Adelaide’s performance last night:
