Bukayo Saka’s girlfriend Tolami Benson joins fellow Arsenal stars’ Wags at Bernabeu for Real Madrid clash
BUKAYO SAKA’S girlfriend joined Arsenal’s Wags at the Bernabeu for the vital Champions League clash.
The Gunners were in the Spanish capital for their quarter-final second leg 2-1 victory against defending champions Real Madrid.
Saka and co boasted a 3-0 lead after a stunning performance in the first leg back in London last week.
The Arsenal players faced a heated cauldron in the ground, with the home support fiercely cheering on the hosts.
However, there was a part of the famous stadium that was passionately cheering on the visitors.
Saka’s girlfriend, Tolami Benson, was in attendance to show her support for the England star.
The 24-year-old was pictured alongside Leondro Trossard’s partner, Laura Hilven.
Laura shared the snap on her Instagram account as the two could be seen posing for the camera.
Her 30.6k followers flooded the comment section with praise for the pair.
One posted: “Finally, I love me some L and T queens supporting kings.”
A second commented: “Have fun girls, enjoy the game.”
A third wrote: “Our pretty queens, wish the boys all the best.”
A fourth said: “Great supporters, COYG.”
Another added: “Beautiful girls.”
Tolami would have been stressed from the stands as she had to watch on as Saka was denied from the spot.
The winger had the opportunity to put Arsenal out of sight just ten minutes in, but Thibaut Courtois saved his chipped spot-kick.
Arsenal were handed a reprieve after the miss as VAR overturned a Real Madrid penalty after it was judged that Declan Rice had not fouled Kylian Mbappe.
Uefa then confirmed the call with a brief statement.
They said: “The penalty for Real Madrid has been taken away due to a non-foul by Declan Rice.”
Saka was also involved in a furious confrontation with Real star Dani Carvajal in the tunnel after the whistle blew for half-time.
But he did end the match with a smile on his face as he scored a vital goal to extend Arsenal’s buffer to four.
He was subbed for Trossard in the 76th minute and was able to put his feet up and watch his side qualify for the semi-final against Paris Saint-Germain.
Gabriel Martinelli put the cherry on top with a goal in added time to seal a famous victory for the Gunners.
However, there was one blow for Arsenal as Thomas Partey picked up a needless booking and will miss the first leg of the semi-final against Paris Saint-Germain.
In November, Tolami walked the red carpet at The Fashion Awards in London.
She looked every inch the superstar as she posed for pictures in her custom black Asos outfit.
