Hector Bellerin has been mocked on Twitter for keeping his runners-up medal as his Spain U21s team-mates immediately removed theirs.

The Arsenal right-back was on the losing end in the European Championship final, with Germany earning a surprise 1-0 win in Warsaw.

A Chelsea fan recorded the footage as the deflated Spain players collected their runners-up medals, spotting that Bellerin kept his around his neck as all others in shot quickly removed theirs.

A caption to the video reads: "Spot the Arsenal player."

Bellerin started and finished four of Spain's five games in Poland, sitting out the third group game, to raise and donate £18,000 towards the Grenfell Tower fire victims.

In the wake of the tragedy and ahead of the competition, the Spaniard vowed to donate £50 for every minute he played in the tournament.

Bellerin followed Raheem Sterling in pledging money to help families affected by the fire, the Manchester City star donating a "substantial sum" to the disaster fund.
