Tottenham Hotspur head coach Ange Postecoglou has hailed the midfielder’s controversial decision to score a second yellow card in the Carabao Cup semi-final first leg on Tuesday. Saying everything was in line with the rules.

The home game defeated Liverpool 1-0 from a shot by เล่นเกมคาสิโน UFABET ทันสมัย ฝากถอนง่าย Bergvall in the 86th minute. Creating quite a bit of controversy because before that. The Swedish player hit Kostas Tsimikas in a moment when the ‘Reds’ quickly counterattacke. But the visiting team players saw that they had the advantage and continued playing. 

The play ended with a long-range shot from Ryan Gravenberch. That is save by the goalkeeper. While Tsimikas is take to the sidelines for treatment. 

Tottenham took advantage of that and passed the ball to Dominic Solanke. Who took control of the ball and passed it to Bergvall. Who shot inside the box and hit the near post.

Of course, the Reds faithful believe the goal should not have happene. If Bergvall had shown a red card for a serious foul earlier in the day. 

But Postecoglou believes that since the rules say that the attacking team makes a continuous offensive play after gaining an advantage. The defending team players will not be retroactively book – then that’s it.

“I don’t want to criticise the referee – like the match against Newcastle (lost 0-2 in a Joelinton handball incident). He might have made the right call, it was just something. That was difficult for us to understand,” he said after the game. 

“They always tell us that if the attacking team has the advantage, continues to play, and the fouls are not serious enough to lead to a red card, the defending team that blocks will not get a yellow card.”

“They tell us every week – players foul our team, we have the advantage to attack, but the opponent players don’t get yellow cards because of that.”

“I am also surprised that football in this country is allowed to continue without much change.”

“But the game has changed more since VAR than in the 50 years I’ve been involved in football,”

‘ The Golden Spurs ‘ home performance in the Carabao Cup this season is outstanding, winning 3 games in a row over great competitors such as Liverpool , Man Utd and Man City.
