​Gabriel Martinelli​ picked up TWO yellows cards in the space of seconds against Wolves in a controversial moment. 

Michael Oliver sent off the Arsenal star who received two yellow cards in quick succession in the 69th minute.

The Brazilian forward shoved Daniel Podence during a throw in before fouling Chiquinho​ literally moments later. 

Oliver then signaled two yellow cards for the two offences, resulting in a red card. 

The 20-year-old couldn't believe the match referee's decision as he was forced to go down the tunnel and have an early bath.

Needless to say, Martinelli's red card sent social media into overdrive - with Arsenal fans slamming Oliver's officiating while some fans praised his decision.


One tweeted: "When has this ever been a thing? Usually refs bottle it and only give one yellow."

A second wrote: "Most ridiculous decision yet."

A third added: "Petty from ref but correct. Martinelli was relying on the fact players normally get away with one yellow."

Martinelli's red card didn't prove costly as the Gunners saw out the victory following Gabriel's first-half effort.
