Kanji Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 Brighton get the funniest of luck man. Away from home, to a side pushing for a title, a two yellow induced red card and then a goal to level it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erikse Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 Just now, Pata said: Thought Rice was subtle enough that he wouldn't get the second yellow if Veltman was just standing there. I recall seeing many of those subtle kicks get given a yellow. Not a second yellow, because players don't kick the ball away on a yellow at all. Apart from Rice that is.

nufc123 Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 4 minutes ago, Pata said: Yeah, think Rice gets away from that if Veltman wasn't swinging his leg and I believe Veltman knew what he was doing. Agree, but Rice has no right to kick the ball there when Veltman is getting ready to kick the ball. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

r0cafella Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 From a footballing perspective I’m happy with this, I’m sick of teams like Arsenal and city who make so many technical fouls in midfield and get away with it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is smart because teams like Arsenal and city who push super high and leave space in behind rely on the counter press which commits loads of fouls, it’s one of those where the rule book is behind the tactical evolution. Disrupting teams transitions via fouls should be mandatory yellow imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can argue it’s harsh (and Arteta will!), but Rice did kick the ball away. Of course! I know it’s the rules. It’s just when we play Arsenal away they are purring and gliding about the pitch. Rice doesn’t lose his head. Ref probably lets that go. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
