After this goal, Ma'el was substituted by Chamberlain, and Ramsey was later replaced by Jenkinson.
Wenger strengthened the defense in the midfield and backfield, avoiding any last-minute counterattacks from Manchester United that might change the outcome of the match.
"Ma...el! Ma'el...!"
As he exited the field, Ma'el heard the traveling Arsenal fans in a corner of the stands singing a familiar tune.
"Bum bum bum bum....! I have a friend who drives a Pagani (Bugatti) on the sidelines and dances a swan dance on the defender line....!"
The fans embraced each other, jumping haphazardly, singing and bouncing. After a while, they found it insufficiently satisfying and, imitating the earlier Manchester United fans, turned their backs to the field in celebration.
This was a Poznan-style celebration, an old tradition in the Premier League, done by fans of many teams.
Given the four-four scoreline, it seemed a bit inappropriate to face away from the field.
