The more and more you watch Gabriel’s decision to pick the ball-up, after the whistle had gone and David Raya had passed him the ball, the more you think it is a penalty. An awakward one, but a penalty.
It would have taken a brave referee to give the penalty, especially in front of an Emirates crowd and in the midst of a feisty encounter in a Champions League quarter-final – with so, so much on the line for both.
But, Gabriel and Arsenal have got lucky with that one and now, they could use it to their advantage in Germany next week when the Gunners go to The Allianz Arena. Bayern will now surely be favourites.
