The game entered the 72nd minute, the “Gunners” got a penalty when Harry Maguire used his hand to block Havertz, until the incident eventually escalated to the point where both teams had a fight, with footage showing Havertz falling down. Although referee Andrew Madley did not see it, slow-motion footage caught Ugarte using his head to headbutt the German striker.
Although the Uruguayan midfielder escape punishment in the game, there is a high chance that the football association will face retrospective punishment, which is highly likely give the clear slow-motion footage.
