VIDEO: Petr Cech refused to lift pre-season trophy and tells Arsenal teammates not to celebrate

After overcoming Bayern Munich on penalties in Shanghai, the Arsenal team was awarded a (small pre-season) trophy and Petr Cech told his teammates to aim higher (jokingly).

enter image description here

Alex Iwobi equalized a late goal to force the game to go on to penalties. Backup keeper Emiliano Martinez made crucial saves for Arsenal to win the shootout:

While Arsenal’s youth enjoyed the moment, as if they just won the FA Cup last season, Cech refused to join in their over-the-top celebrations. Instead wagged his finger and said: “This is not the trophy we lift guys. This is not the trophy we lift. Let’s lift the big one at the end of the season. Not this one!”

You can also hear Xhaka at the back saying: "We're young! We're young men!"'

Although it's all fun and games, look at Cech’s reaction when the youngsters grabbed the trophy and lifted it XD:

Oh Arsenal.

Well at least he tried. XD Gotta respect Cech for that though, he is showing great ambition for the next season. ;)

@Eden Most of the youngster there won't have the chance to lift a trophy next season even if Arsenal win one, its okay for them to celebrate. Like Xhaka said, they are young. But I do hope Arsenal does well if only for Petr sake, the man is class. ;)
