Alexis Sanchez embarrasses himself in bizarre throw-in incident

Referee Mike Jones at first appeared to let Sanchez
stand there but Fuchs, on his third attempt, hurled
the ball directly at the Chile international – with
replays showing it hit him on the shoulder.
Sanchez instead belatedly went down holding his
face, rolling on the ground well after the ball had
made contact.
Fuchs – on a yellow at the time – wasn't booked,
but Sanchez was... and Arsenal held on
for three vital points.
Wenger defended his star forward after the match,
and instead blamed the official for the whole
incident.
"I accept that he was not the required distance,"
the Frenchman said post-match.
"The referee or the linesman should have told him.
Fuchs was lucky not to get a yellow card because
he threw the ball at him on purpose."
OK, Arsene...
