Not an Arsenal fan, but given Michael Oliver's previous with them of giving bizarre decisions and PGMOL of defending them - at what point do serious questions get asked about corruption, or at best, bias and attitudes protecting that?
I think it’s that foot is high with studs = yellow, and cynical foul to stop a counter = yellow, so two yellows in one tackle? Only justification I can think of
Its bizarre Seb. Whats VAR for if not this? There is clear power dynamics and some referee like Oliver are never overturned even if it's a clear mistake.
He saw the player wearing an Arsenal shirt and knew that sending anyone wearing that shirt would make them miss the City match. Its "strange" that we are pretending otherwise, this is a repeated pattern of behavior from Oliver. If this was happening in a 3rd world country, we'd call it what it is.

contact, but it’s just not red.
Oliver is wrong, in a world without VAR we move on. Without it we now have more than one Ref getting it wrong and conspiracies can breed.
Could have injured him.
