The Norwegian girl who wore an Arsenal shirt at Spurs v Tromso

  • 6 years ago
Lena Mari Edvardsen has become an internet sensation after cheekily putting on an Arsenal shirt at White Hart Lane last Thursday.

The Norwegian was in the away end to support her local team, Tromso, when she put on the shirt of Tottenham's bitter local rivals.

A steward immediately asked the 19-year-old to remove the top but a photographer had already snapped the moment and Edvardsen's fame soon spread as she was called 'a legend' by Arsenal fans -- and a number of less complimentary things by Spurs fans.

She has received well over 500 friend requests on facebook and was even given a free ticket to the Sunday's clash between Arsenal and Stoke as a thankyou from a fellow Gooner.

Yet a number of the comments she has received online have been less complimentary -- and here she discusses the reaction to the internet.
