ARSENAL fans joked that Ian Wright won the "Embarrassing Dad" award at the FA Cup final as he tried to hug son Shaun on the touchline.
The duo appeared as pundits on ITV's coverage of the showpiece Wembley clash between Manchester United and City.
While standing on the touchline alongside his boy, Wrighty tried to give Shaun a big hug in front of fans making their way to their seats.
Wearing a big grin, Wright-Phillips jokingly tried to push his dad away.
The 41-year-old laughed as he made to get away from Wright, giving a brief wave to the crowd before seeing that his old man was chasing him.
Their father-son exchange ended with both howling with laughter.

Alongside laughing emojis, one fan responded: "And the "Embarrassing Dad" Award goes to…"
While a second related, writing: "I have this struggle with my little one every day!"
