Confirmed : Arsenal 4-2 Leicester City major decision Officially Reviewed : Officials got it wrong

First off, Declan Rice’s dismissal from the 1-1 draw against Brighton shortly before the international break caused quite a stir when it was decided that he had impeded Joel Veltman from starting the game.

Then, as Arsenal and Manchester City tied 2-2, lightning struck twice as Leandro Trossard was sent off for the identical offense.

After getting sent off for shoving Bernardo Silva to the ground, the Belgian slammed the ball away. However, Michael Oliver barely gave the No. 19 for Arsenal any room for mistake, as he had blown his whistle mere milliseconds prior to the incident.

Given these two instances, Wilfred Ndidi’s action in the 35th minute on Saturday would have infuriated both Mikel Arteta and Arsenal supporters.

VAR fails to notice what Wilfred Ndidi did in Arsenal 4-2 Leicester City

All we want to see when it comes to officiating is some consistency, but that was nowhere to be seen from Sam Barrott at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday.

The Leicester City No.25 had already been shown a yellow card in the 31st minute, and then proceeded to kick the ball away – off the pitch in fact – after Bukayo Saka was fouled by Stephy Mavididi.

You can view the footage on X – Arteta was surely incensed not to see the Nigeria international receive a second yellow.

Arsenal supporters will undoubtedly be perplexed as to why Ndidi wasn’t penalized after hearing so much in recent weeks regarding kicking the ball away and holding up the restart.
