Arsenal's Alexandre Lacazette Apologises for Red Card vs. BATE Borisov

Alexandre Lacazette has apologised after being sent off late on during Arsenal's shock 1-0 defeat away to BATE Borisov in the first leg of the UEFA Europa League last 32 on Thursday night.

The French striker was shown a red card in the 85th minute after a violent clash with defender Aleksandar Filipovic. It means Lacazette is likely to be suspended for the second leg at the Emirates Stadium on Thursday, February 21.

After the game, he took to Twitter to express his regret regarding his actions:

Alexandre Lacazette

Letting the team down like that is the worst feeling.
