Arsenal winger Saka chased ref Nyberg off pitch

Arsenal winger Bukayo Saka chased referee Glenn Nyberg off the pitch after their Champions League clash against Bayern Munich.

Saka was appealing for a last minute penalty when he went down in the box with the game level at 2-2.

However, VAR took a look at the incident and Saka appeared to engineer the contact with Bayern keeper Manuel Neuer.

Former Manchester United star Rio Ferdinand disagreed, stating on TNT Sports: "How has that not been given? I can't believe it with VAR and everything. I can't believe that has not been given.

“That man in your picture, has got a life there. Saka today I thought was the most dangerous player for Arsenal.

“He is running through there, that is a penalty. I'm in the stadium, I can't believe it."
