Arsenal 'disappointed' as FA reject Luiz red card appeal

Arsenal have expressed their disappointment after they failed in their appeal to have David Luiz’s red card against Wolves rescinded.

Luiz was sent off seconds before half-time at Molineux on Tuesday night following a collision with Wolves striker Willian Jose.

Referee Craig Pawson deemed that the centre-back had made no attempt to make a challenge when bringing down the Wolves striker in the penalty area, so brandished a red card for denying a clear goalscoring opportunity.
