Arsenal fans are fuming as Spurs draw Leipzig in Champions League last 16

Tottenham will take on RB Leipzig in the last 16 of the Champions League.

Arsenal’s North London rivals, now led by Jose Mourinho, avoided the likes of Barcelona and Juventus and will now take on the impressive Bundesliga side next year.

And following the draw, these Arsenal fans quickly took to social media to share their frustrations.

Of course, Arsenal fans would’ve been hoping that Spurs drew Barcelona towards the end, however, Leipzig will be no pushovers.

They currently sit top of the German top flight and have lost just once in their last 14 competitive fixtures.

Leipzig have the likes of Timo Werner, Chelsea loanee Ethan Ampadu and Arsenal target Dayot Upamecano in their ranks, so the Gunners faithful shouldn’t be too disappointed with the draw for their rivals.
