Kepa Arrizabalaga wrestles with Jeremy Doku for the ballKepa Arrizabalaga's foul on Jeremy Doku in the Carabao Cup final was "a clear yellow card" because it was not a goalscoring opportunity, says former referee Mike Dean. The Arsenal goalkeeper was cautioned early in the second half for fouling Manchester City winger Doku outside of his penalty box following a long ball forward. He doesn't grab Jeremy Doku but he puts his arms around him." Kepa Arrizabalaga was fortunate not to concede a goal or a red cardArsenal manager Mikel Arteta will be particularly disappointed with the first, given he talked up No.2 goalkeeper Kepa in the build-up. Before facing Arsenal, he had lost in the final of this competition twice - to Manchester City and Liverpool - both on penalties.
