Jorginho has thanked Arsenal supporters for sticking with him on the back of his “painful mistake” in the latest north London derby.
The Gunners took the lead against arch-rivals Tottenham on two occasions at Emirates Stadium, with Bukayo Saka forcing an own goal from Cristian Romero before then converting from the penalty spot.
They were, however, forced to settle for a share of the points in a thrilling 2-2 draw.
Son Heung-min netted a double of his own for Spurs, with the second of those efforts gifted to him by Jorginho.
The Italy international – within seconds of Saka scoring from 12 yards – dwelt on the ball in the middle of the park.
This allowed James Maddison to pick his pocket and tee up Son for another leveller.
Jorginho has posted on Instagram of potentially costing Arsenal two precious points – with fans having taken to chanting his name, rather than getting on his back:
“A painful mistake today, but seeing how everyone reacted after my mistake to support and lift me up, my team-mates, coaches, staff and you Arsenal fans.
“It gives me even more motivation to work harder and harder, because all of you deserve the best version of myself.
“Thank you so much for the support; Arsenal family.”
