Micah Richards slated Declan Rice's bizarre sending off in Arsenal's weekend Premier league draw against Brighton as 'one of the worst decisions I have ever seen.'

The Manchester City legend is the latest ex-Premier League star to criticise the second yellow card dished out by referee Chris Kavanagh who booked the England international for kicking the ball away.

Rice had already been deservedly booked for a rash challenge int he first-half against the Seagulls before being given his marching orders in the opening exchanges of the second 45 minutes after he booting the ball amidst being kick in the leg by Brighton full-back Joel Veltman.
