Match Day Thread Wrexham v Bristol City

I’d be surprised if we don’t get an apology letter re the disallowed goal, and possibly the ref’s performance in general, he was awful. A complete contrast to the ref Saturday

 

Why do you think it was careless?
The keeper did not have control of the ball.

 

Riis kicked the keeper. He missed the ball. Safe?

That photo doesn’t show any contact with the keeper, and that doesn’t even account for the defender grappling with, and pulling Riis’s shirt. It was an awful decision

 

There was contact.

And if there was no contact is Riis challenge careless?

 

70 80 90's fair challenge. now foul all day. me 80s player thinks no foul but its not 50/50 with a keeper anymore when the keeper has to put their face down there!!!!! slide in dive lung in on the gk and its a foul!!!

 

The goalkeeper drops the ball, the attacker has every right to attempt to get it, and Riis was being pushed/pulled by the defender and his shirt was being pulled. Awful decision

 

How does the attacker have a right to challenge for the ball?

Does this challenge on the keeper display a lack of caution?
