The 18-year-old tripped up Wolves’ Matt Doherty as he looked to spring a counter-attack following an Arsenal corner.
It was an incident that would typically be punished with a yellow card given it appeared to be a professional foul.
But Arsenal’s players were left flabbergasted when Oliver brandished a red – with the Premier League since being urged to drop the referee.
Darren England, who was the VAR official for the contest, upheld Oliver’s decision as Lewis-Skelly’s tackle was deemed ‘serious foul play.’
