Look at how the PSG players immediately stopped appealing the moment the referee waved it away. Only Marquinhos approached the ref, and the bench stayed calm. Zero drama.
Now contrast that with Mikel Arteta and Arsenal. When Madueke pulled down Nuno Mendes and intentionally went down looking for a soft penalty, the Arsenal players threw a collective tantrum on the pitch. Arteta rallied his entire bench, screaming at the officials for almost a minute and nearly interrupting the game.
Thatβs the exact brand of tactical tantrum he throws in the PL to bully weak English referees who completely lack authority.
What makes Arteta truly embarrassing is his shameless desperation. Later on, when Gyokeresβ shot got deflected for a corner, Arteta was up in the fourth official's face demanding a handball penalty. Then we saw the replay, and the ball wasn't even close to a PSG player's arm.
Heβs a certified embarrassment to the beautiful game.

The previous lowest record was also Arsenal, set in the 2006 Champions League final, which they played 72 minutes with 10 men.
