Max Dowman’s Fleetwood fracas leaves him, Arsenal and Arteta red-faced

Arsenal teenager Max Dowman became the youngest player ever sent off in a League Cup match at 16 years and 300 days during a Carabao Cup tie against Fleetwood. His red card, which was considered harsh by some, was followed by a visible reprimand from manager Mikel Arteta, who confronted the young forward as he walked off the pitch. The incident proved embarrassing for both the player and the club, with Arteta himself also drawing criticism for his reaction on the touchline.
