A group of children from Arsenal in the Community’s Down’s Syndrome football group were in for a very special surprise last week as first-team stars Petr Cech and Hector Bellerin gave them a very special tour of the Emirates.

The Gunners stars met the youngsters in the home dressing room, where they found shirts emblazoned with their names hanging on the wall.

They were then met by the club’s legendary mascot Gunnersaurus on the hallowed Emirates turf before Cech offered Emmanuel, Max, Jacob, Annalise, Connor and Nyella one final surprise: prime tickets for that night’s Champions League tie against Dinamo Zagreb.

Happily for the youngsters they got to see one of Arsenal’s better performances of the season so far, as Alexis Sanchez and Mesut Ozil shone in a 3-0 win.

And as you can see in the video below it was the perfect end to what was a fantastic day for the youngsters.
