A CBS FM radio presenter was on Thursday forced to go to work dressed as a woman after losing a Champions League bet.

MC Wale Wale, who hosts the Evening Cruise show on CBS Emmanduso had earlier vowed to put on a dress if Arsenal could overcome Real Madrid to progress to the Champions League semi-finals.

“If Arsenal can beat Real Madrid at Santiago Bernabeu, I will work in a dress,” he said.

On Thursday, the Gunners pulled out a dramatic 2-1 win against the Spaniards in a hostile Bernabeu, bagging them their third Champions League semi-final - and a first since 2009 - after an impressive first-leg 3-0 win.

Bukayo Saka's saved early Panenka penalty and Kylian Mbappe's overruled spot-kick ensured the Gunners' progress wasn't without incident, but it was ultimately a win that will send a message to the rest of Europe.

Saka made up for his indiscretion with a second-half opener and, despite William Saliba gifting Vinicius Junior an equaliser soon after, the Gunners never looked in trouble as Paris St-Germain awaited, with Gabriel Martinelli securing the win late on.

True to his word, on Thursday afternoon, Wale Wale turned by the studio in a long lime-green dress as his workmates laughed hysterically.

The presenter admitted to losing his bet but vowed to curse the London Club for embarrassing him

“Now that I have to dress up like this, Arsenal will not win the Champions League nor the Premier League until their fans apologise to me like I apologise today,” he said.

Arsenal have the second-best defensive record in the competition, conceding just seven goals in 12 matches, while going forward, only five teams have scored more.

Standing in their way though, are a youthful, vibrant PSG side, who many are tipping to win their first European crown.
