Aubameyang scores, sent off as Arsenal draws at Palace. MORE:
Jordan Ayew had already equalized for Palace when Aubameyang made a late challenge on Max Meyer, catching the midfielder’s left ankle with studs showing.
“The VAR looked at the incident and determined that the point of contact and the intensity of the challenge endangered the safety of the opponent and recommended upgrading the yellow card to a red card for serious foul play,” the Premier League's referees' body said in a statement.If it was the type of challenge seldom seen by Aubameyang, his finish was familiar in its quality.
In an exciting last 10 minutes, Palace defender James Tomkins had a header cleared off the line by Arsenal defender Sokratis, before Arsenal winger Pepe saw his angled shot crash off the post and go to the feet of Lacazette, whose close-range blast was smothered by Guaita. Ninth-place Palace, who introduced loan signing Cenk Tosun as the substitute for Meyer following his move from Everton on Friday, stayed a point ahead of Arsenal.
