Arsenal 1-1 Brighton: Mikel Arteta's men drop their first points of the season as Joao Pedro cancels out Kai Havertz opener after bizarre Declan Rice red card
Daily MailArsenal’s season, which has begun amid so much optimism and verve, descended into tumult and acrimony at The Emirates after referee Chris Kavanagh’s hugely controversial decision to send off Declan Rice reduced the Gunners to 10 men four minutes into the second half of their clash with Brighton & Hove Albion. Arsenal dropped their first two points of the season in front of an enraged sell-out crowd in north London after Kavanagh showed Rice a second yellow card for nudging the ball away from Joel Veltman as Brighton tried to take a quick free kick. Joao Pedro scored Brighton's equaliser after Declan Rice was sent off for Arsenal Declan Rice was shown a bizarre red card just moments after half-time Kai Havertz put Arsenal in front by lobbing Bart Verbruggen after good work from Bukayo Saka The ball was rolling as Veltman tried to take the free kick, for a start, so presumably Mr Kavanagh would have had to bring play back anyway if Veltman had been allowed to punt it upfield in the first place. MATCH FACTS Arsenal: Raya; White, Saliba, Gabriel, Timber ; Partey, Rice, Odegaard ; Saka, Trossard, Havertz Goal: Havertz Booked: Partey, Timber, Raya Sent off: Rice Manager: Mikel Arteta Brighton: Verbruggen; Veltman, Van Hecke, Dunk, Hinshelwood; Milner, Baleba; Minteh, Joao Pedro, Mitoma ; Welbeck Goal: Joao Pedro Booked: Hurzeler, Minteh, Joao Pedro Manager: Fabian Hurzeler Arsenal’s failure to convert their dominance into a lead began to prey on their play.
