Daizen Maeda

Is it worth appealing this? We really need him for the last 2 games.

 

We should appeal that, think theres a good chance it would get rescinded.

Mind this one Liverpool appealed and got rescinded a few weeks ago



Maeda's is even lesser than that as MacAllister did plant the studs flush on the guys even though there was nothing really in it. Maeda didn't actually touch him with the studs and it was more a clash of boots that looks like the studs touched him from one angle.

No way he should have been sent off.

I also feel like the ref when sent to the monitor didn't think it was a red either, probably watched it 6 or 7 times and was likely thinking "this isny a red" but then they always change it once they've been called over.

 

Will Celtic appeal this?

 

Felt sorry for him last night, such a * decision. VAR once again getting involved needlessly and ruining a game of fitbaw. Joke.

 

There was no malice in the tackle.The ref was swayed by the vAR still photo, AM players and their manager(*).

 

Can't even blame the referee there, var is in his ear pretty much saying he got it wrong and to look at it again

 

Can't see any loss in appealing this... It isn't a frivolous complaint, so can't see any punitive action for trying, and worst case would be that it's upheld...

 

What’s the difference?

 

We are just a little Scottish club and they are a La Liga giant. It has been the same in almost every game we have played in this competition over the last two years.

Leipzig, Lazio, Feyenoord and Athletico have all benefited from big calls in games against us a number of which that have been wrong.

The thing I have noticed is any slight thing opposition get a lengthy check to see if there is something there for them. Ours just get waved on.

How in the same competition what the Lazio player did to Hatate can be seen as ok and the Lagerbielke and Maeda red cards be viewed as bookable and sending off offences is something that really should be questioned but won’t be.

The same with in the same game how Lagerbielke putting an arm across a guys chest he goes down holding his face is a penalty yet diving in from the wrong side getting none of the ball and plenty of the man isn’t, also needs explained. But again won’t be.

VAR is meant to correct, incorrect decisions but seems to focus more on grey areas and causes more controversy. All those incidents listed above, giving a penalty when it is not due to a players theatrics, missing an off the ball incident because you are watching the game, missing a foul in the box because you’re not up with play. It hasn’t properly reviewed any off them.

 

VAR is a way for the powers that be to influence the game how they like. It can be the only way it can be explained for such bad decisions everywhere.

 

The difference is that Meadas foot was flat although off the ground and the other player kicked it.
That players studs are up and have slid right in. Massive difference to me.

 

Uefa don't allow appeals in their competition unless it's mistaken identity

 

100% and if you look at the Aths players sole/studs the majority is on Kyogos boot where all off Meadas sole/studs are above the boot. It's a clumsy challenge and a red imho.

 

It says a suspension can be protested, but not a decision by the referee. Strange wording.

 

Said in the pre match thread “a bit of luck and you never know”

20 mins in and they’ve scored a * deflection and Maeda’s been sent off for no apparent reason. We’ve some * curse against us.

 

Agreed, I actually thought he was going to look at the monitor and stick with his decision, that's how ridiculous a red it was.

 

That's a point, domestically that's an absolute nothing challenge that gets given as a foul and we move on. Big difference is the reaction. Not to go all Brexit but when you have the player rolling around like he's been shot, players swarming the ref, a crowd baying for blood and a coaching team all in the ears of the officials, that kind of thing makes a difference. * scandalous.

 

The red reminded me a little of when Brown get sent off after leaving something behind on Neymar.

It is just the fact that players give the ref a decision to make just means it will be a red, especially now with VAR and how these things will get over analysed

 

What? The one where Brown kicked his back when the ball wasn’t there

Couldn’t be any more different.
