Everton's relegation rivals Leeds United have suffered a major blow after defender Luke Ayling was sent off in the first half of his side's match against Arsenal this afternoon.
United were already two goals down before Ayling left the ground with a two-footed lunge on Gabriel Martinelli that sparked a furious response from the Brazilian's teammates.
And when referee Chris Kavanagh was invited to review the incident on the VAR pitch side monitor, he had no hesitation in showing Ayling a straight red card.
