Clattenburg: B fell to the ground to find a penalty, Gabriel should not have been sent off

Recently, Clattenburg was interviewed by the Mirror, in which he talked about Arsenal's controversial penalties against Manchester City and said Arsenal had the right to express dissatisfaction with these awards.

City eventually beat Arsenal 2-1 away with Rodri's goal in stoppage time. However, Arsenal believed that Adegaux's knockdown in the first half inside the Manchester City penalty area should be awarded a penalty, but the referee on duty did not consider it a penalty. Clattenberg agreed with the penalty, saying: "Atwell's decision was correct, when Edgy Edgar had observed that Edson had struck, and then he vacated, but he did not use his arms to support himself, but chose to deliberately control the shape of his arms. It was a signal from an athlete to deliberately look for a penalty, and Atwell was not fooled. ”

Shortly after the start of the second half, City scored a controversial penalty that upset arsenal players. Almost in the same position as Erdegaard, Seat B was brought down by Xhaka in the penalty area, Atwell also thought it was not a penalty, but VAR gave his own reminder, and finally after watching the replay, Atwell gave Manchester City a penalty. In response, Clattenburg said that Atwell should trust his instincts.

Clattenburg said: "Atwell should trust his instincts and uphold the original sentence. At that time, B-seat had kicked the ball out of Xhaka's defensive range, but Xhaka had already retracted his leg at that time, which was obviously B-seat wanted a penalty. It's not a clever way to get a penalty, and it's no wonder Arsenal fans were furious when they watched the replay. ”

The controversial penalty didn't end there, and Gabriel was sent off a few minutes later for hitting Jesus for his second yellow card. Arsenal had to play with 10 men. Clattenburg said Gabriel's first yellow card was uncontested, but the penalty for the second yellow card was indeed debatable. Clattenberg said: "I don't have any objection to the first yellow card, but I don't think he deserves a yellow card for knocking down Jesus, it was a normal foul, and such a decision is really biased." ”
