Gary Lineker and Joe Hart have both praised Tottenham Hotspur’s supporters after they clapped Bukayo Saka on to the field during their friendly against Arsenal yesterday.

Great gesture

In a touching moment rivalries were put aside to show solidarity with the Arsenal youngster.

Tottenham fans clapped Saka on to the pitch to show that they supported him against the vile racial abuse he had received after missing a penalty at Euro 2020 with England.

Saka actually applauded the Spurs supporters back as he jogged on to the field in what was a really heart-warming moment.

And both Lineker and Hart praised their actions on social media after the game.

Tottenham fans also brought along a banner during the contest which stood up for Saka, in a real show of class.

Spurs supporters also had plenty to cheer on the pitch during the contest.

Tottenham ran out 1-0 winners over Arsenal, with Heung-Min Son scoring the only goal between the two sides.

The South Korean international took aim from inside the box and fired the ball into the bottom corner, after some questionable defending from the Gunners.

Tottenham are now gearing up for their first competitive game of the season, which comes against Manchester City in six days’ time.
