At 30 minutes of play, Araujo saw a straight red card after committing a foul on Bradley Barcola on the edge of the area, being the last defender and with the PSG player facing ter Stegen's goal.
With one less, Barça was unable to stop the French team's attack, and there were many who criticized Araujo's action, even some of his dressing room teammates like Gundogan. The Uruguayan definitely did not have his best night against PSG, and there are also those who consider him one of the main people responsible for the Barça team's elimination in this Champions League, since it is an action that he could have avoided.
