Sun Sports v Welwyn Garden City


Recommended Posts

Why was the goal keeper sent off?

 

Where a player commits an offence against an opponent within their own penalty area which denies an opponent an obvious goal-scoring opportunity and the referee awards a penalty kick, the offending player is cautioned unless:

  • The offence is holding, pulling or pushing or
  • The offending player does not attempt to play the ball or there is no possibility for the player making the challenge to play the ball or
  • The offence is one which is punishable by a red card wherever it occurs on the field of play (e.g. serious foul play, violent conduct etc.)

According to referee's report received this morning the match official was correct with his decision

 

"LATE IN THE GAME JACK METCALFE OF WGC TOOK DOWN THE FORWARD FOR SUN SPORTS WITHOUT GOING FOR THE BALL DENIES A GOAL SCORING CHANCE I SENT HIM OFF"

The referee gave a penalty and he says it was a goal scoring opportunity, so a caution should have been issued as per the laws of the game.
