He attempted to chip the ball over Cristian Romero only to fail epically and set the defender up.
Romero capitalised and coolly slotted home to pull one back for the hosts – leaving Gooners bemused.
One said: “We haven’t conceded an away goal in 2024 and Raya does that.”
Another added: “What is Raya thinking”
One asked: “What is Raya doing?”
Another fumed: “What the actual… Raya FFS.”
It was the first time Arsenal have conceded an away goal in over ten hours of football.
The Gunners raced to an early lead after Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg’s own goal on 15 minutes.

Goals from Bukayo Saka and Kai Havertz then looked to have left Arsenal home and hosed by half-time.
But Raya’s gaffe afforded Spurs a route back into the game and then Declan Rice gave away a penalty.
Tottenham skipper Son Heung-min converted from the spot to leave it all to play for with ten minutes to go.
But Arsenal held their nerve to take an important three points back to the Emirates in their fight for the title.
