Arsenal's David Luiz Commits Blunder, Penalty Leading to Two Manchester City Goals

The Premier League held its first matches since March 9 on Wednesday, but the league's return wasn't exactly a happy occasion for Arsenal defender David Luiz.

The 33-year-old was largely responsible for Manchester City's first goal of the afternoon after failing to clear a pass near his own goal. The ball deflected off of Luiz and landed right in front of Manchester City forward Raheem Sterling, who took advantage of the mistake for an easy goal. Luiz's struggles would continue shortly after halftime.

Luiz was sent off the pitch in the 50th minute after conceding a penalty, setting up Man City's Kevin De Bruyne for a penalty kick.
