Gunners defense stout after Rice dismissal
Arsenal has been nothing short of defensively superb this season. After back-to-back clean sheets, while the Gunners conceded against Brighton, it was how the backline defended after going down to 10 men that would please Mikel Arteta.
With the visitors dominating possession after Rice was sent off, Brighton didn't create too many clear cut chances and would likely rue not taking advantage of an Arsenal side that was there to be got at.
The Gunners were stout defensively but, in truth, should have never been down to 10 men in the first place. But it is what it is.
