League Cup Celtic V the huns Sunday December 15th kick off 3:30PM premier sport

Clement piping up about penalty claim. Balogun done Vickers after being on a Yellow card and Raskin with persistent fouling at one staged had 3 fouls within 90 seconds and nothing done.

 

It was miles on.

What was contentious though is that CCV is fouled at their second goal. Even if the ref misses it, VAR should pick it up.

Add to that both Raskin and Hagi should have been sent off, arguably Balogun too. Every single time we play them, they have multiple players who get free rein to commit multiple fouls and don’t get booked until late on. Raskin should have been booked at least twice, probably three times (and at least for persistent fouling) in the first half alone; eventually got booked in the 91st minute. Hagi should have been booked at the end of the first half for a professional foul on CCV; eventually got booked in extra time. Even the Balogun booking (which was as obvious as they come), the card wasn’t coming out until McGregor berated Beaton.

Yet CCV gets booked for cleanly winning the ball. His first “foul.”

Those “small” decisions which don’t grab headlines have a huge impact on the game (especially when it goes to extra time).

One of the two linesman stood out like a sore thumb today too. Gave a couple of blatantly incorrect throw ins to the Huns, plus had his flag immediately waving for a few extremely soft fouls.

The irony is, even with a us having a complete off day and them having a fan refereeing the game; we go home with the trophy.
