minstral 5,375 Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 The SFA should throw the book at Rangers defender Carlos Cuellar this week, after his assault on Christian Kalvenes during the 2nd half of the Scottish League Cup final at Hampden on Sunday. Rangers undeservedly lifted the trophy 3-2 on penalty kicks, but the game would have been done and dusted if referee Kenny Clark had awarded United a 53rd minute penalty kick after Cuellar`s disgraceful attack on Kalvenes. Already leading 1-0 after a 1st half opener from Noel Hunt, United looked to be in control of the match when Kalvenes put Cuellar under pressure inside the Rangers penalty area. Unbelievably, referee Kenny Clark waved play on, after Cuellar grabbed the United defender by the throat and pushed him to the ground. The incident is unlikely to be mentioned in the referee`s report, so the SFA will be under pressure this week to review the incident and take action against the Rangers player. The BBC cameras got a clear view of the incident, which was shown on the news as one of the major talking points during the match. If the SFA don`t take action, then Strathclyde Police should get involved, because it was a disgrace act by Cuellar, which clearly deserves some sort of punishment!

mark_ni 12 Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 what a load of pish. I do think it was a penalty personally but it was hardly an "attack" or grabbing him by the throat. Just a bit of pushing and pulling from both players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

fandangoman 0 Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 watching the game today i was shocked to see it happen, it was a clear penalty of course with blue glasses on i couldnt see a thing wrong with it lol there was a few challenges today tho that i thot could have went much differently clearest one is the broadfoot challenge in the first half wen he went for the ball full bottom of his foot showing and caught there RB i think. that could have been a lot worse IMO Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
