Stupid mistakes decide games, especially the big ones where both teams are at the top of the league. In this case an incisive pass from Fabregas and a good run by Chamakh had broken though the City defence, Just prior to this a similar move and only just failed due to offside, and Boyata committed a professional foul.
City can have no complaints about that. It wasn't simply a mistake by one person either, the defence shouldn't have been opened up like that and left Boyata in such a position. Where on earth was City's left back for example?
Red cards are as much apart of Football as anything else and it was a fair red card. You do play the remaining 85 minutes and Arsenal had the quality to make it count.
