Gabriel Jesus fell pray to an unusual tactic
He was not pleased with the offence
Jesus protests his innocence as Yerson Mosquera asks for a cardThe outstanding player for the Wolves, Yerson Mosquera, spotted his chance and seized it, visibly gripping Jesus’ behind.
Understandably irritated, Jesus pushed the defender to the ground.
He received a quite harsh yellow card.
And Mosquera and referee Jarred Gillett did not sit well with Gunners supporters.
A comment was made saying, “The guy is something else…”
A second posted: “Something has to be done with the officiating in this league. It is ludicrous.”
One more person said, “We all know about refs and VAR…joke.”
“Welcome back to some of the worst referees in Europe,” yelled a fourth.

Mosquera was fortunate to be on the pitch following a previous altercation with Kai Havertz, which only served to fan the flames.
At first, the German was in error when he pulled his opponent to the ground.
Havertz was on the ground, but Mosquera’s hands seemed to be around his neck; he managed to remove them quickly enough to keep the officials from noticing.
In the end, Havertz’s header in the first half and Bukayo Saka’s outstanding attempt sealed the victory for Arsenal.
Despite not being at their best, the Gunners managed to prevail in front of their own supporters.
Next weekend is a trip to Aston Villa.
