Lewis-Skelly, 18, was booked in the 24th minute for a foul deep inside his own half.

He was then penalised for a very late challenge on Richard Ledezma just two minutes later.

There were calls from the PSV players that Lewis-Skelly should be sent off by the referee, Jesus Gil Manzano kept his cards in his pocket.

Arsenal then stormed into a three-goal lead thanks to efforts from Jurrien Timber, Ethan Nwaneri and Mikel Merino.

After the goal from Merino went in, Mikel Arteta made the decision to sub Lewis-Skelly out of the action.

Italian defender Riccardo Calafiori was sent on in place of the youngster.

Lewis-Skelly looked disappointed with himself as he slumped down on the bench to watch the remainder of the match.
