Vidal off, Casmeiro not off, Ronaldo offside. Same old for Madrid
Absolutely disgraceful officiating.
Surely to F**k if we can have goal line technology we can have a review of yellow cards/red cards. There is a stoppage when a player is to be sent off, in that time they can either review the single red card incident or the combined two within a minute. The fourth official has F**k all else to do anyway, every card can either be confirmed or within a minute informed it has been retracted.
Of course there would be a push then for penalty decisions to be reviewed and free-kicks but in reality how hard is it to actually implement with the wonders of modern technology, piece of piss that's how hard. It would add virtually no time to the actual stoppages these decisions create anyway.
It would stop the calls of corruption etc and would increase consistency within the game a monumental amount. You'll still get your marginal calls which could have gone either way and in that case the referee's initial call stands, to be honest when it comes to marginal decisions I don't think too many have an issue with those going against, it's the blatant and game destroying bullshit like we saw tonight. Farcical.
