THE’Arsenal advances to the fourth round of the Carabao Cup. The Bolton is out of the Carabao Cup for the hand cashed in this evening in the match against Gunners by Mikel Arteta: 5-1 for the team that will face Inter in the Champions League. A glorious evening too Raheem Sterlingmaking his debut as a starter for the team after his move from Chelsea. Jorginho played the full 90 minutes in a convincing performance, while Calafiori was substituted in the 70th minute.
On Edson Alvarez’s red card (double yellow), the former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher he spoke to the microphones of BBC Sports: “West Ham came very close to scoring and probably deserved a goal in the second half. But what a stupid decision when you already have a yellow card. There are two or three players running after Mo Salah, it’s not like he’s all alone. It wasn’t a last resort. For me it’s a ridiculous decision. Now he will miss the weekend”, he concluded.
