ARSENAL fans fumed as Burnley's Ashley Westwood escaped a red card following a horror 'stamp' on Kieran Tierney.
With the sides drawing 0-0 at the Emirates, Clarets midfielder Westwood lunged in on left-back Tierney.
Replays revealed the tackle high on the knee but somehow warranted only a booking.
Gooners – who have seen three red cards given against them this season already – hit out at Westwood's foul and subsequent booking.
One said: "Ashley Westwood stamps on Kieran Tierney’s calf, but luckily for him he’s wearing a Burnley shirt rather than an Arsenal one, so a yellow card is deemed sufficient."
Another said: "Westwood very lucky, don’t hurt my man Tierney."
One added: "Why is that not a red card for Westwood? Deliberately follows through and stomps Tierney."
Another added: "Westwood foul on Tierney = yellow card. Xhaka? Your guess is as good as mine."
