'I Want To Hunt Him Down And Slap Him In The Face!' - Twitter Reacts To Flamini Blunder

The much-maligned Arsenal veteran conceded a penalty only a minute after coming off the bench in the Gunners' 2-0 Champions League defeat by Barcelona, prompting fury online

Arsenal were never expected to get a win against heavy favourites Barcelona in the first leg of their Champions League encounter but they were expected to put up a good fight. For the most part, they did. For Mathieu Flamini, not so much.

With the Gunners trailing 1-0 with just under 10 minutes to go at the Emirates Stadium, Arsene Wenger raised eyebrows by turning to the veteran defensive midfielder - and those eyebrows nearly catapulted off their owners' faces when the Frenchman brought down Lionel Messi in the box with his very first action of the game.
