DBasia.news – Alexandre Lacazette regretted his actions and apologized after getting a red card when his team lost 0-1 to BATE Borisov.
The Gunners surprisingly lost in the first leg of the Europa League last 32, and Stanislav Dragun’s header in the first half is enough to give the host the advantage.
Five minutes before the long whistle, Lacazette, whose goal was disallowed for offside in the second half, got a straight red card for hitting Aleksandar Filipovic.
The 27-year-old immediately apologized, but still believes his team can turn things around at the Emirates Stadium.
“Leaving a team like that is the worst feeling,” Lacazette said.
“I should have stayed calm, but this is not always easy. Sorry.”
“There are still 90 minutes left and I believe the team mate will make it through to the next round.”
This defeat is the fourth experienced by the Gunners in the last seven matches in all competitions.
