I’m guessing people don’t break their ankles every day of life then. I cannot wait for you to call for one of our players to be sent off when we foul a player to break up play, when they have no intention of going for the ball.
He got the red because of the ankle break, not the challenge. That challenge happens 2 or 3 times a week in the PL. it’s a yellow card challenge. The league (actually it’s More appropriate to say the referee committee) also didn’t think Ali’s handball was a penalty, so I’d not use them as the ultimate authority on this... unless you don’t think it was a peno.
If the pundits (from sky, nbc & star sports) including Tim Cahill FYI, are saying it’s not a red card, I’ll take their opinion as having greater validity.
Do you think you know more than ex-professionals?
[/QUOTE He got the red because he went to hurt the player on purpose he was angry he got a slap in the face so he trips tackles Gomes which resulted in Gomez getting broken ankle. If son didn’t make that challenge Gomes wouldn’t be in surgery right now. But if son didn’t get a slap and did that tackle he would of only got a yellow. Professional foul is different it’s a yellow all day but you don’t go into hurt the player. However I think if you hack someone down to stop a attack that should be red because your not going for the ball is which what I said. And no I don’t think I know more than ex players what a stupid question. But ex players all have different opinions so who is right or wrong.
