You see people being brought back for a yellow card after the advantage has happened.  Shouldn't it be a red card here?

 

The offence is denying a goal scoring opportunity. The opportunity hasn't been denied so no red card.

 

was he booked? the goal scoring op may not have been denied, but it is still a foul, and a last man foul at that.

 

 

What's that?

Doesn't quite work that way, you can give advantage anywhere on the pitch and go back and book or send someone off, but when its the GK and advantage is played it never happens.

 

Its like an unwritten rule, just very odd.

Be a bit hard to deny a clear goalscoring opportunity elsewhere on the pitch mind.

Just think while this is going on our boys are resting, waiting and considering and in the case of Shola quite possibly eating an apple. Fourth place shall be ours.

It's not- the offence is 'denying a goal scoring opportunity', he hasn't denied a goal scoring opportunity as a goal has been scored. It's perfectly clear within the rules. If the foul itself is worthy of a RC then it would be a red card.

If that tackle had been in the middle of the pitch with a normal player then the game would have continued and then the player yellow carded when the ball went dead. So why hasnt Cech been red carded?

 

Because the yellow card then is for the foul, not for denying a goal.

Should be a yellow card though.

Seriously man, you cannot send him off for "denying a goalscoring opportunity" when the opposition scored man, if Adebayor had decided to flick it the other way then fair enough, if the referee had pulled play back for the foul then fair enough.

 

Did Adebayor score though? No. Therefore he was denied a goalscoring opportunity
