Mateo Kovacic has had an FA Cup final to forget after being sent-off in the second half of the FA Cup final after two bookings.

Fans on Twitter though are debating with the decision for Kovacic to be sent off:

Arsenal are currently 2-1 up after a brace from Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. Christian Pulisic opened up the scoring for Chelsea but had to be taken off after a supposed hamstring injury.
