cidercity1987 Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 Lucky Liverpool. I thought the rule was if it hits the body and then the hand then it isn't a pen. It also wasn't a goalscoring opportunity when it hit his hand as his body had already blocked it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesBCFC Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 Honestly think it's a tough one. The ball looks to me like it's going in anyway after the first time it hits him. His arm is swung out (bad wording) a small amount, though I'd say for balance rather than intent to stop the ball. There will be a decision like this most weeks in the Championship or League 1 that won't be given because it doesn't get seen by an official at the time, if it's your club you want the penalty, if it's against you you feel hard done by. Personally wouldn't give a red, but if its what the letter of the law says then the ref has to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northern Red Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 Once he gave the penalty it was always going to be a red. Azpilicueta is embarrassing himself. Does he think the ref is going to change his mind if he keeps moaning at him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fordy doesn't matter where it hit him, if you move your arm to contact the ball after then it has to be a deliberate handball surly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell them to go away and if they don't start booking players for dissent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scare_Man Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 There was a definite intention to stop the ball crossing the line with the hand, even if it came off the body first. Right decision IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fordy62 Posted September 12, 2021 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2021 Absolute disgrace of a red card today for Leeds. Wouldn’t have happened the other way round I’m sure. warning: it isn’t pretty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can’t just ignore it as a topic for debate. Yes it’s sad he’s had a horrible injury, but there’s no way that should be a red. Needs to be overturned.

MarcusX Posted September 12, 2021 Report Share Posted September 12, 2021 It's not a classic red, but one legs gone through the back of the player IMO. Definition of serious foul play is in part: A tackle or challenge that endangers the safety of an opponent I think it does that, based on that one angle and 2 second clip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was certainly accidental, there’s was no malice in the tackle. Things like that happen regularly at all levels of football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bs4Red Posted September 12, 2021 Report Share Posted September 12, 2021 Never a red. Perfect for the advocates trying to take tackling out the game. Unfortunate yes but even a foul is harsh imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
