Arsenal defender Gabriel was fortunate to avoid a red card during their 1-1 draw with Brentford, according to pundit Keith Andrews. The Brazilian was shown a yellow card in the 20th minute for a foul on Igor Thiago, but later escaped a second booking after a wild swing at Dango Ouattara late in the game.
Andrews, speaking on TNT Sports, described the second incident as a 'definite yellow', suggesting Gabriel should have been sent off for two bookable offences. Despite the controversy, the Arsenal captain remained on the pitch to help his side secure a point at the Gtech Community Stadium.
The draw extended Arsenal's winless run against Brentford in the league, with the hosts pushing for a winner in the second half. Andrews praised Brentford's performance, noting they looked the more likely side to claim victory. 'If any team was going to win it, I felt it was probably going to be us,' he added.
