“The position of the Premier League match was examined on X:” the yellow referee's call was examined for a mistake from Tarkowski by VAR, with the call after Tarkowski played the ball that you consider to be reckless. “
The keyword here is “reckless”, which according to Law 12 deserves a yellow card instead of red.
However, Liverpool – and many spectators – felt Tarkovsky's challenge was not only reckless, but was also made with excessive force.
According to Law 12, as shown on the Football Association website, “” treatment or challenge that displays the integrity of the opponent or uses excessive or brutal force should be punished as a dangerous dangerous game. “
He continues: “Any player deviates in a opponent in challenging the ball from the front, from the side or from behind the use of legs or both legs, with excessive strength or talisman, the integrity of the opponent is guilty of wrong play.”
Taking into consideration, Tarkovsky was at the Blues Center, he was somewhat lucky to stay on the field, leaving his challenge to leave Mac Allister writhing in pain – although the Argentine World Cup winner was able to continue after receiving treatment.
It should also be noted that in the formulation of laws, there is no indication of winning the ball in a processing procedure. If the player uses excessive strength, whether he took the ball or not, he will be relevant – he will continue to fulfill the threshold for a red card.
