The thing I can't fathom is this. T T-L handled the ball and got a Red presumably for DOGSO.(Like others I was assuming it was for simply handling outside the area but apparently Rules have moved on)But if Ref or anyone behind the goal or opposite goal or indeed the Ref says it was going wide , how do they KNOW for sure ?It never carried on its way as he knocked it forwards , whereas if it carries on it could have spun , hit a divot or been affected by wind or indeed any outside interference However I'm glad it was overturned of course and well done those in Club with the conviction to follow it up especially knowing frivolous Appeals can result in lengthier bans
The handling was a spit second after the ball was headed, I too had doubts as to how anyone could judge with certainty that the ball was going wide.
So, TLT didn't deny a GSO but created one with a free kick being awarded for handling the ball?Hmm.
It's certainly got us and others talking:https://www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/football/doncaster-red-card-overturned-crewe-32720602
