FIREWORKS exploded right over David Raya in shocking scenes during Arsenal’s Champions League clash at Sporting.
The Gunners blitzed into an early 2-0 lead thanks to goals from Gabriel Martinelli and Kai Havertz.
David Raya had not been threatened by Viktor Gyokeres or any of the Sporting players.
But on 25 minutes, various fireworks, flares and smoke bombs were set off over the Arsenal penalty area.
The pyrotechnics were not shown by the TNT Sport cameras but commentator Darren Fletcher referenced them.
And he was surprised the referee did not stop play and take the two teams off the field.
Videos quickly circulated on social media of the fireworks.
The clips showed the explosives being launched out from the stand behind Raya and flashing into bursts of light.
Another revealed the magnitude of the green and white smoke wafting across the pitch.
Within minutes, clouds covered the pitch in Lisbon.

One supporter said: “Fireworks and flares set off aimed at Raya and the back four. That’s gotta be a ban surely.”
However, jubilant Arsenal fans inside the ground chanted: “We want more fireworks,” as they watched their side put on a spectacular performance.
