Arsenal fail with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang appeal over Crystal Palace red card

Arsenal striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s red card for violent conduct at Crystal Palace has been upheld.

Aubameyang was sent off midway through the second half of Saturday’s 1-1 Premier League draw at Selhurst Park after
catching Max Meyer high on the ankle with a poor challenge by the touchline.

Aubameyang, who has 16 goals in all competitions this season will miss the club’s next three games, which include a trip to Chelsea.

Meanwhile Gunners Boss Mikel Arteta has challenged his squad to step up in the next three games.
