Antonio Conte: Strange for Chelsea to get another red card against Arsenal

 

 

Antonio Conte says it is "strange" his Chelsea side have finished a game against Arsenal with 10 men for the third time running.

David Luiz was sent off late on by referee Michael Oliver for a lunging tackle on Sead Kolasinac in the 0-0 draw at Stamford Bridge on Super Sunday, an incident manager Conte did not wish to talk about in depth.

Instead, Conte referenced the Blues' previous two games against Arsenal - the Community Shield in August where Pedro was sent off, and the FA Cup final in May where Victor Moses saw red - and admitted the circumstance was "very strange."
