Vorskla faced Arsenal in the Euopra league on Thursday, and their captain had a bizarre way of preparing for the game.

The Ukranian team were set a difficult start to their Europa League campaign with an away visist to last season's semi-finalsists, Arsenal.

The team managed to put in a spirited performance and despite the loss, they managed to score two goals against the 'Gunners'.

Volodymyr Chesnakov managed to get on the scoresheet, but his pre-match antics were what social media users were more focussed on.

A video emerged of the defender in the tunnel, spitting in to his hands and then rubbing them on his face, which left several Twitter users puzzled and disgusted in equal measure.
