Arsenal sets historical record at Premier League with red card on the handle

Arsenal has set a new cartoon record at Premier League.

Gunners” welcomed League leaders City in Emirates Stadium on New Year's Day, seeking revenge for their loss 5-0 in Manchester in August.

Mikel Artetta's team went to the top of the first in the first part thanks to a Bukayo Saka strike, but Riyadh Mahres equated the outcome from the white penalty point before the lieutenants were reduced to ten players, making a story of the first league in the process.

Topchies have now become the first team to reach 100 red cards since Premier League's formation in 1992.

Meanwhile, Gabriel is the 11th player to be expelled from Michael Arteta, which is more than any other club since the Spanish appointment in December 2019.

The final score of 1-2 in favour of guests means that Arsenal remains in fourth place with 35 points, four more than West Ham in the race for last place in the Champions League after playing a match more.

Arteta's team will now take a two-week break from Premierliga's action ahead of a major denal match against Tottenham on 16 January.
