Gbenga Arokoyo Blames Referee For Red Card

Central defender Gbenga Arokoyo took the walk of shame in Mj&auml;llby\'s 2 - 2 draw with Elfsborg on Sunday evening.<br /><br />The Nigeria international was shown a straight red card in the 24th minute by referee Andreas Ekberg for fouling goal-bound <span style=\"\" class=\"notranslate\"> Lasse Nilsson in the 18 - yard box.<br /></span><br />&ldquo;The player deceived the referee by diving. The referee made a bad decision by giving me the red card.<br /><br />&ldquo;He regretted that and tried to compensate us. Ended up giving the other team a red too.<br /><br />&ldquo; Everyone knows the referee made a mistake, I am fine with my teammates and coach,&rdquo; says Arokoyo to <b>allnigeriasoccer.com.</b><br /><br />Coincidentally, Gbenga Arokoyo was also dismissed just before the final whistle in the first round clash against the same opposition back in May.<br /><br />The youngster has been cautioned 11 times in 31 Swedish Premier League matches.<br /><br />&nbsp;<br /><br /><br /><br />
