City teammate Fernandinho was also given his marching orders for a series of open-handed chops on the larynx of Cesc Fabregas.
Post-match, Luiz was asked about the Aguero incident and his response was pure class. He said:
"I don't really like to talk about these things. Sometimes the players are frustrated with the result or something that happened. "Sergio is an amazing player. He scores a lot of goals and gives a lot to football. "I prefer not to talk about this. I prefer to give this victory for the people in Brazil. It was a difficult week for us, especially emotionally. I had some friends there [at Chapecoense] so it was difficult to prepare the head to play this type of game but I just need to pray for the families and for their hearts as it is a difficult moment for everybody."
Fair play to Luiz for rising above it. Life is too short, he knows, and too precious. Catch up with the latest episode of Football Friday Live:Pure class from David Luiz #ForcaChape pic.twitter.com/I5h1Yndn58
