Chelsea's disciplinary issues strike once again at the Emirates 😩

It's all gone from bad to worse for Chelsea against Arsenal on Sunday.

After handing the Gunners a taste of their own medicine just before the break for 1-1, the Blues conceded again off a corner and then lost a man on the pitch.

Pedro Neto was issued a first yellow after going down 2-1 and roughly three minutes later, received a second after taking out Gabriel Martinelli who was on the break.

Chelsea now have received seven red cards this Premier League season, and nine in all competitions.

Architects of their own downfall.
