Toney, who scored a header in the 74th minute to cancel out Leandro Trossard's earlier strike, was also targeted earlier this season in October after Brentford's 2-0 win over Brighton & Hove Albion. "We stand with Ivan Toney," Arsenal said."At Arsenal, we condemn all forms of discrimination and take a zero-tolerance approach. We will apply the strongest possible action to anyone we can identify sending hateful messages."
