Arsene Wenger may have been left seething by Arsenal’s loss at Old Trafford on Sunday, but the result was a whole lot more damaging for one reckless supporter in Uganda.
Gunners mad Henry Dhabasani has been left homeless after betting his house on the result of the game with Manchester United fan Rashid Yiga.
In return Yiga staked his new car, and his wife, that David Moyes’ men would triumph.
However, it was Dhabasani who came out on the short end of the result after Robin Van Persie’s first-half header settled the match in United’s favour. So serious was the bet that the two men put down the stake in writing
with local leaders and fellow fans drafted in as witnesses. The Ugandan Observer reports that Dhabasani, who has three wives and
five kids, fainted at the end of the match as the result of his folly
sank in. He was evicted on Monday after several United fans stormed his home and threw him and his family out. metro

A student stapled his testicles as a forfeit after losing a game of Fifa 13.
Nathan Bells’s cringe-worthy challenge came after losing the Xbox match to friend Saber Da Silva.
The student took the painful punishment as part of a ‘Fifa Forfeits Sunday’ event held at his halls of residence.
Mr Bells, 20, studying at Leeds University, said: ‘It brought a tear to me eye. I usually beat Saber. He got lucky.’
The eye-watering moment he jammed a staple into his scrotum was broadcast on student news website, The Tab.
‘It was hilarious,’ said Mr Da Silva. ‘Nobody has turned down a forfeit yet.’
A video of the painful forfeit has also been circulating on social media this week.
Elsewhere, an artist in Russia horrified tourists last week when he nailed his own testicles to the ground at one of the world’s most visited landmarks. metro
