A sport that pivoted on the controversial sending off of Declan Rice early within the second half led to a 1-1 draw.

Kai Havertz had put us right into a first-half lead when he deftly lobbed the onrushing keeper after operating onto a Bukayo Saka move.

We had been seemingly in management till Rice was proven pink for 2 bookable offences, the second for time losing, when the referee determined he had prevented a fast restart.

The guests quickly made their benefit rely, and levelled on the hour by means of Joao Pedro. We had an opportunity to win it when Havertz raced by means of on the counter, however in the long run the ten males needed to accept a single level.

Havertz offers us raise off

Martin Odegaard and Bukayo Saka linked up early on. The skipper lifted a ball excessive for the winger to run on to inside the realm, however Saka didn’t get any energy on his volleyed effort. Ben White did catch his strike from the sting of the realm sweetly moments later, and it gave the impression to be heading goalwards, however Lewis Dunk deflected it away for a nook off his arm. The referee waved away appeals for handball in opposition to the Brighton defender.

An exquisite curling cross from Leandro Trossard – within the crew on the expense of Gabriel Martinelli – arrange our subsequent likelihood. The Belgian’s move was completely into the trail of the coming Odegaard, however there was no energy behind his shot.

Brighton’s first actual sight of purpose got here on the half hour. Havertz misdirected his headed clearance inside his personal field and Kaoru Mitoma latched onto it, flashing his volley simply broad.

The purpose to interrupt the impasse got here out of nothing. Jurrien Timber gained the ball and launched it up subject from outdoors his personal space. Saka gained the header and the ball bounced by means of to the advancing Havertz. The German stole in and lifted the ball over the pinnacle of Bart Verbruggen from outdoors the realm into the web.

It was Havertz’s 18th purpose involvement in his final 21 Premier League video games, and he’s scored 5 occasions in his final 5 appearances at Emirates Stadium.

He gave away a free kick by the nook flag, then nudged the ball away earlier than Joel Veltman may take it.

Diminished to 10 males for nearly half the sport, it additionally means Rice can be suspended for the north London derby after the worldwide break.

Inside quarter-hour of the pink card, Brighton had levelled. Raya saved nicely from Yankuba Minteh as he burst between our central defenders contained in the field, however Pedro was there to transform the rebound.

Mikel Arteta reacted by sending on Riccardo Calafiori for Leandro Trossard, and transferring Jurrien Timber right into a central position.

Late probabilities

The entire momentum of the sport had modified with the referee struggling to maintain management.

We had been having to take in strain, however Havertz had an excellent alternative on the break from an extended Gabriel clearance. He took the ball beautifully on the run, however his low shot was stopped by Verbruggen, and Saka’s observe up was charged down.

Raya saved nicely together with his legs from Yasin Ayari earlier than Saka couldn’t fairly get sufficient buy on a Havertz cross in entrance of purpose.

In the long run we needed to take some extent, sustaining our unbeaten begin to the season.

A observe from Wild Card host Rachel Martin: Jeff Goldblum has a particular model of charisma — the sort that seeps its manner into all his roles. Whether or not it is within the film The Fly or Independence Day or Jurassic Park — or his latest present KAOS — each character looks like a model of Jeff Goldblum himself.

He does not have to work too exhausting at turning into another person on display as a result of he is aware of that the viewers actually simply needs him. His devilish smile. His completely deployed comedic asides. It looks like he is all the time in on the joke and he needs us to be in on it too.

It is as if he is saying, “Hey, I see you on the market. I am having such an excellent time on this second, doing this appearing factor and I need you to have enjoyable with me. Come nearer. Have a seat and let’s examine what surprises may unfold.” And we do, as a result of it feels joyful there and somewhat harmful, and that is an intoxicating place to be. Which is why I wished him to hitch me on Wild Card.

This Wild Card interview has been edited for size and readability. Host Rachel Martin asks company randomly-selected questions from a deck of playing cards. Faucet play above to hearken to the total podcast, or learn an excerpt beneath.

Query 1: What’s part of the tradition you grew up in that you just knew you did not wish to take with you?

Jeff Goldblum: I grew up in Pittsburgh. It may be robust — simply the tradition of bullying, and tough stuff, and coarseness, and ignorance of 1 form or one other. I definitely can say that I spotted even again then that I longed for one thing finer than the coarse world of whoever is hardest wins and whoever’s acquired the largest muscle wins. I did not wish to take that.

I knew there was one thing else in addition to that and I hungered for it. And it led me partially to appearing, this world I’ve now pursued. In order that othering enterprise, I knew I did not need that.

Rachel Martin: Have been you othered, or had been you bullied explicitly, otherwise you simply seen it from the sidelines?

Goldblum: I each seen it, seen it occurring to others, and sure, myself right here and there, othered and bullied. I spotted, “Oh, I higher get somewhat robust or discover some technique to defend myself.”

Query 2: What have you ever discovered to watch out about?

Goldblum: My well being. You recognize, it is no joke. I misplaced a brother when he was 23. You’ll be able to’t take it without any consideration. We’re fragile. I imply, we’re resilient and difficult, but in addition fragile. And now, particularly, I’ve acquired youngsters. I need extra now to dwell as lengthy and healthily as I can. So I attempt to go to mattress on time and do a number of different issues which are in my management. I attempt to watch out about my well-being.

Martin: Your brother did not die of an accident, proper? Was it kidney illness?

Goldblum: Yeah, that is proper. It wasn’t an accident — he was touring round North Africa. He was 23 and he wished to be a journalist. He was improbable and I miss him — we had been shut. However he was form of going round and dwelling in a cave and dwelling on the seashore or one thing for a few days, his associates stated, and he acquired one thing.

He already knew he was vulnerable to this one little anomaly he had in his system. So he needed to already watch out. He was a few days away from a hospital, or a day away — too lengthy. Had he been close to a hospital, he may have been saved, however he rapidly fell into kidney failure.

So yeah, I am cautious. I am cautious.

Query 3: Has your concept of what it means to be an excellent particular person modified over time?

Goldblum: Nicely, I suppose that it is turn out to be clearer and extra essential. My mother and father taught me early on that being an excellent boy meant being well mannered. Which was most likely good, nothing improper with that. And making As at school.

I then went on to understand later that being an excellent pupil meant asking, “How a lot are you able to study and use this lifetime for development?” It meant not simply getting the grade or impressing anyone else, however actually delving into what you had been interested by, connecting with your self after which delving as deeply as you may, not simply to get the grade. In order that’s good.

Jeff Goldblum and Laura Dern arrive for the world premiere of Jurassic Park in 1993.

However increasingly more I acquired clearer about how what I did may influence others and assist others and the thought of contribution, and I really like that. There is a George Bernard Shaw quote* that I like rather a lot that claims:

“That is the true pleasure in life, getting used for a objective thought-about by your self as mighty. Being a power of nature as a substitute of a feverish, egocentric little clod of illnesses and grievances complaining that the world is not going to dedicate itself to creating you cheerful.

“I’m of the opinion that my life belongs to the entire group. And whereas I dwell, it’s my privilege to do for it no matter I can. I wish to be completely used up once I die. For the more durable I work, the extra I dwell. I cherish life for its personal sake. Life isn’t any transient candle to me. It is a kind of splendid torch that I’ve acquired maintain of for the second and I wish to make it burn as brightly as doable earlier than handing it off to future generations.”

That is an excellent one to maintain in your pocket or up your sleeve and to dwell by until the top of your days when you’ll be able to’t do it any higher and higher and higher and higher and higher.
