After Saturday's Premier League match between Arsenal and Manchester City, great Peter Schmeichel blasted referee Michael Oliver for red carding Leandro Trossard.
At the Etihad Stadium, Trossard received a dubious red card shortly before halftime.
After a foul by Trossard on Bernando Silva, referee Oliver halted the game and gave Man City a free kick.
Nevertheless, the Belgian international was sent out after Oliver showed him a second yellow card for what seemed like kicking the ball away after the whistle had blown.
Schmeichel was displeased with Oliver's choice and felt that Oliver wanted attention for himself.
I don't think the Premier League has ever seen a game like this. Cardstock in a gentle yellow hue! If Michael Oliver wants to destroy it, why? Get a handle on what you're dealing with; this is a major game, and people's emotions are running high.
However, Michael Oliver is determined to steal the show! (According to afcstuff on X), Schmeichel stated.
