Let's be honest - Arsenal went after injuring Rodri from the start. 3 fouls on him that all should have been yellow cards.
Even the coup-de'grass was a low level foul (never given as a pen) with the defender matching his knee to the shape of Rodri's knee along with a gentle push.
According to a physio friend of mine this can often result in an ACL injury if the recipient was going to move in a different direction to that which the gentle push propels them. The twisting moment injected into the knee is huge.
