Footage has emerged of Tottenham fans abusing Declan Rice as he prepared to take a corner in Sunday's north London derby.
The Arsenal midfielder received a significant amount of abuse from the home fans but he managed to keep his concentration as he sent in a corner.
As is often the case, it was an accurate delivery from Rice, and Kai Havertz managed to score with a header to make it 3-0 to Arsenal in the 38th minute.
Rice wasted little time in running towards the Tottenham fans and celebrating in front of them, and he was soon joined by his Arsenal team-mates.
As the goal went in, Tottenham fans were heard saying 'F*** off'.
Arsenal had taken the lead through an own goal from Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg before Bukayo Saka made it 2-0.
Tottenham got a goal back in the 64th minute through Cristian Romero, with Son Heung-min scoring a penalty late on to ensure a frantic finale.
However, Arsenal managed to hold on for victory and are one point ahead of Manchester City, albeit having played a game more.
It was the second time in a week that Rice had to endure abuse from rival supporters.
During Arsenal's 5-0 win at home to Chelsea last week, some Blues fans sang abusive chants about Rice and his girlfriend Lauren Fryer.
Rice has made a major impact since joining from West Ham and will hope that his first season at Arsenal concludes with him winning the Premier League title.

English f.a need to monitor the game between Tottenham and man city because I don't trust Tottenham they might sell the match to avoid Arsenal winning the league

You used to say the same with City. And City has proven everyone wrong. Asernal will do the same.

The English FA has to do something about this, it's discrimination. They are abusing him because of his wife which has nothing to do with football and it's playing on him mentally. A usual calm and impactful Rice was losing his head against Richalison and a bit below his standards against Tottenham and I knew something was wrong........Please be strong Rice, they see you a danger man and want you off gear. Win them on the pitch....I know you can do it....Rice Rice Baby.....πͺπͺπ₯π₯π₯πππππ
