Fan gets tattoo of West Ham United's 2-0 scoreline over Arsenal

A West Ham United supporter has celebrated his side's triumph over Arsenal by getting a tattoo of the scoreline on Sunday.

Before the Premier League opener, Twitter user @waller_whu promised that he would ink his body in the unlikely event that the Hammers would get one over their London rivals at the Emirates.

On the social media website, the Hammers fan wrote: "If West Ham beat Arsenal today I WILL get the score line and date tattoo'd on me."

Despite the odds being against West Ham, Cheikhou Kouyate and Mauro Zarate were on target to seal a 2-0 win over Arsene Wenger's side yesterday afternoon.

Following the result, fellow Twitter user Tom Rielly revealed that the West Ham fan kept to his word and now has a permanent reminder of the result.
