'Dirty play' rumblings from injury comebacks to Brazil clash in North London derby
Dele Alli (Tottenham) has been criticized by fans since his return from injury.
Tottenham lost 2-3 to Arsenal in the 35th round of the 2023-24 English Premier League (EPL) on Monday (Aug. 28) at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England. The loss leaves Tottenham on 60 points and unable to close the gap on fourth-place Aston Villa (67 points).
Spurs conceded three goals in the first half alone. Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg scored an own goal from a corner in the 15th minute, then conceded a second goal to Xherdan Shaqiri from a counterattack in the 27th minute, and then conceded a third goal to Kai Havertz from another corner in the 38th minute.
In the second half, Arsenal poured it on. Christian Romero capitalized on a David Luiz mistake to score in the 19th minute, and Son Heung-min converted a penalty kick (PK) in the 40th minute. However, they were unable to find the equalizer in the end and suffered the defeat.
It was Hicharisson's return from injury. He came on for James Maddison in the 17th minute of the second half, trailing 0-3. He moved up front and naturally, Son Heung-min moved to left wing forward. He was aggressive up front, battling and competing with the Arsenal defense.
The moment in question occurred in the 42nd minute of the second half. After Arsenal won the kickoff after going 2-3 down, Hicharisson ran forward. Arsenal defender Gabriel Magalhaes tried to block him and collided with him hard. Magalhaes went down and the referee pointed to the spot.
It was clear that he was intentionally running towards Magalhaes, regardless of the ball. Magalhaes gets to his feet and expresses his displeasure to Richelisson, who doesn't back down. It was a clash between two Brazilians.
According to the UK's Daily Mail, fans reacted to the play with comments such as "He lunged at Magalhaes after the kick-off, that's not soccer" and "He should have been sent off. It was clear he was intent on hurting the player."
