 After an incident as incendiary as the sending-off of Declan Rice on Saturday, a moment early in the second half that was pivotal to the outcome of the match against Brighton, it’s normal for there to be some heightened interest as the press wait for the managers to come and explain their perspectives.
토요일에 라이스가 퇴장한 사건(후반 경기 초반이라,, 브라이튼과의 경기 결과에 중요한 영향을 준) 이후,  
언론이 그 사건에 관심을 갖고 manager들이 그들의 생각을 설명하는 것을 기다리는 것은 당연한(?) 일이었다. 
 
However, when Rice nudges the ball away from Joel Veltman four minutes into the second half, a fraction of a second before he is kicked in the back of his calves by the opponent he had been tangling with, out comes the yellow card for a second booking, and then the subsequent red. 

Rice is aghast. 
 
The official explanation is that Rice was sanctioned for “delaying the restart”.
공식에서는 라이스가 재시작 시간을 딜레이 시킨 것에서 제재를 당한 것이라고 설명했다.

How much time do we spend dissecting incidents compared to the nuances of the game’s skills and match-ups and tactical and technical merits?
 

How much confusion must we endure over the ever-changing minutiae of the handball laws?
 
Havertz and Bukayo Saka made life difficult for Brighton, and both had chances to win it even when their team was a player short. However, that touch of ruthlessness under pressure was elusive.
