Piers Morgan reacts angrily to Arsenal calamity in Champions League
By Tony Hughes
Arsenal fan Piers Morgan doesn’t hold back on his opinions and he took to Twitter to slam his team after a disastrous start in the Champions League on Tuesday.
Arsenal won the reverse fixture 6-0 at the Emirates but it looked like Ludogorets might match that after a fast start at home.
Jonathan Cafu scored the first in the 12th minute after a very debatable free-kick was awarded to the home side.
Keseru added a second to make it 2-0 to Ludogorets in the 15th minute following a poor bit of defending from Kieran Gibbs in his own penalty area.
That sent Morgan into a tailspin and he took to his personal Twitter account to let the world share his pain, as he asked his side what the hell they were playing at.

0-2. Jesus CHRIST.
What the hell are you playing at Arsenal?
I've never even heard of this bloody team. #Ludicrousrets— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) November 1, 2016
His anger would have been abated five minutes later as Granit Xhaka pulled a goal back for the visitors with a fine finish from the edge of the box.
That’s how the match stayed until the 42nd minute when Olivier Giroud popped up to deliver the equaliser and make Wenger’s half-time talk that much easier.
Morgan was also happier on Twitter:
2-2. Better. #afc

Talking before the match Wenger warned fans not to expect an easy match and that’s the way it’s panning out.
“It was 6-0 but not a 6-0,” Wenger said of the previous match. “In the second half it was easier but the first half could have been 2-2.”
It was a prescient forecast of the 45 minutes to come.
