And it’s Oliver again: Lewis-Skelly sent off in the first half against Wolves

Arsenal visited Wolverhampton for their Premier League match in Round 23. The teams failed to find the back of the net in the first half, but just before the break, the Gunners were reduced to ten men.

Details. Referee Michael Oliver showed a straight red card to Arsenal's young talent Myles Lewis-Skelly.

At first glance, it appeared that the referee made this harsh decision for a last-man foul. However, there were other Wolves players ahead of the counter-attacking player.

VAR has since issued an official statement regarding the red card, stating that Oliver sent off Lewis-Skelly for serious foul play, specifically for "studs-up contact above the ankle."

Recall. Notably, Michael Oliver previously issued a controversial second yellow card to Leandro Trossard in the first-round clash against Manchester City. That decision sparked heated debates online, with many fans calling Oliver's ruling "absurd."

Furthermore, Oliver has sent off Arsenal players eight times, more than any other Premier League team.
