You cannot - in a once-every-four-years competition - that is largely a single elimination tournament - make a team play 10 on 11 after a red card, and then remove that team’s offending player for the next game. You just cannot, for ANY reason… let alone a silly, unintentional ‘infraction’ like tonight’s. Not when fans care, root, and spend this much. It ruins the product. And also invites corruption among referees.
NEW:🚨 Thomas Partey on Djed Spence not shaking his hand:
“I don’t really know the reason, and honestly, that’s something only he can answer. I don’t want to give it too much attention because football is about respect and focusing on the game.
If there’s anything behind it, hopefully he reflects on it himself and understands why he made that decision. As for me, I’m completely fine. I have no issues with anyone and I wish him all the best.
I stay focused on my football, my family, and my faith. I serve the living God, and that gives me peace regardless of what happens around me.”

@FtblOli@AdamCrafton_ The league is about to be won by a team that score most goals from set pieces and defend brilliantly. Is that nuanced enough for you?
