Arsenal's Lewis-Skelly Sent Off in West Ham Loss

Arsenal's title hopes took a hit with a 1-0 loss to West Ham, compounded by the dismissal of Myles Lewis-Skelly, who received a red card after a VAR review. Initially issued a yellow card for a foul on Mohammed Kudus, the decision was upgraded to red, as it was deemed to deny a clear goal-scoring opportunity with Arsenal's keeper out of position. This incident left Arsenal to finish the match with ten men, struggling without a recognized striker and trailing in the title race behind Liverpool. West Ham, led by Graham Potter, capitalized on their organization and adventurous play, with Jarrod Bowen scoring the decisive goal. This was Lewis-Skelly's second red card in recent weeks, adding to Arsenal's disciplinary issues. The Premier League supported the VAR decision, stating the foul left Kudus with a clear path to goal.
