Arsenal paid price for Gabriel red card - Ramsey

The Wales international felt the centre-back's sending-off was the decisive moment in the Gunners' 2-0 defeat to Chelsea
Aaron Ramsey admitted Arsenal paid the price for Gabriel Paulista's dismissal in Saturday's Premier League loss at Chelsea.

The game at Stamford Bridge was scoreless when Gabriel saw red for kicking out at Diego Costa in the closing stages of the first half and the hosts wasted little time in making their numerical advantage count, with Kurt Zouma heading them into the lead eight minutes after the interval.

Arsenal were reduced to nine men when Santi Cazorla was dismissed with 11 minutes to go and Eden Hazard sealed a first home win of the season for Chelsea - and arrested a run of three straight Premier League defeats in the process - when his injury-time effort was deflected home by Calum Chambers.

Ramsey says Arsene Wenger's men are now desperate to bounce back in Wednesday's north London derby, with the defeat at Chelsea having been preceded by a shock Champions League loss at Dinamo Zagreb. . This posts are taken from the original authorized page. Authorized by the original author.
