Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan posted photos with Arsenal star Mesut Ozil and his fiance Amine Gusle on Monday, 1 April, and Twitter didn't know how to handle it.
The actor posted two photos with the footballer and his partner on Twitter, where they are holding the midfielder's No 10 jersey. The tweet said, "What a lovely evening @Arsenal congratulations. Thx @MesutOzil1088 & #AmineGulse for your warmth love & hospitality. See u guys soon in India."
Later in the day, Ozil, posted on Instagram, "It was a big honour to have you as my special guest during yesterday's match! Thanks for coming! @iamsrk"
He posted the message in Hindi too, "Kal ki match mein aapka swaagat karna mere liye ek sammaan ki baat thi. Aane ke liye dhanyavaad."
Ozil was playing for Arsenal against Newcastle in London. Twitter was head-over-heels at this development:
Arsenal Defeat Newcastle
Aaron Ramsey's parting gift to Arsenal might just be helping the club back into the Champions League.
Ramsey scored in the 30th minute to set Arsenal on its way to a 2-0 win over Newcastle on Monday, lifting Unai Emery's team above Tottenham and Manchester United and into third place in the Premier League.
Alexandre Lacazette added the second goal in the 83rd minute in a dominant performance at Emirates Stadium by Arsenal, which has won 10 straight home league games within a single season for the first time since May 1998.
Ramsey is leaving Arsenal after 11 years to join Juventus on a free transfer in July. He remains important to Emery, however, and was handed the armband against Newcastle in the absence of regular captain Laurent Koscielny, who was out injured.
