season with a 1-1 draw at The Emirates on Saturday, with the home side holding on with 10 men afterFour minutes into the second half, however, Arsenal ’s task was made all the harder when Rice was sent off after picking up a second yellow card. Brazilian striker Joao Pedro fired Brighton level 12 minutes later.
