Lewis-Skelly becomes the third-youngest player to receive a red card in the Premier League
Arsenal traveled to Wolverhampton for their Premier League match in the 23rd round. Late in the first half, the Gunners were reduced to ten men.
The match’s head referee, Michael Oliver, showed a straight red card to Arsenal’s young talent, Myles Lewis-Skelly, for dangerous play.
Details. At 18 years and 121 days old, Lewis-Skelly has become the third-youngest player to receive a red card in Premier League history. Only Wayne Rooney against Birmingham in 2002 (17 years, 63 days) and Michael Owen against Manchester United in 1998 (18 years, 117 days) were younger.
Reminder. Earlier, we reported that with Lewis-Skelly (18) and Nwaneri (17), Arsenal fielded two English players aged 18 or younger in a Premier League starting XI for the first time since February 1998.
