British boxer Anthony Ogogo says he was racially abused by a fellow Norwich fan during Tuesday night's game at Arsenal.

The Canaries lost the Carabao Cup tie 2-1 in extra-time and London 2012 bronze medal winner Ogogo says the night was marred by the abuse he suffered.

Soon after the match, the middleweight posted on Twitter: "Terrific support tonight by Norwich fans, nine thousand strong.

"Although I did get racially abused for cheering. In this day and age it's disgusting. Worst of all it was a Norwich fan that thought I was Arsenal.
