From the source
Arsenal crashed out of the Carabao Cup on Tuesday night, beaten 5-3 on penalties by League Two side Fleetwood Town after a 1-1 draw at Highbury.
It was a night to forget, and it ended with Arsenal down to 10 men. With five minutes of normal time remaining, Max Dowman was sent off after appearing to kick out at a Fleetwood player who had tackled him hard, and Mikel Arteta was seen having a stern word with the 16-year-old as he walked off.
Speaking to Sky Sports after the game, Arteta was asked about the decision, which pundits and commentators felt was harsh. He refused to give a verdict until he had seen it properly, but didn’t sound too impressed with Dowman.
