Was the dismissal of Iraq’s scorer by Faghani correct?


Hossein Asgari, in an interview with the sports reporter of Fars news agency, said about the refereeing of Alireza Faghani in the match between Jordan and Iraq in the round of 16 of the Asian Nations Cup: The most important refereeing scene in this match was the expulsion of the Iraqi player. Ayman Hussain did humiliating joys after scoring. He first went to the home crowd and then to the opposing crowd and somehow humiliated the Jordanian team and its fans. This behavior is considered unsportsmanlike behavior when the opponent has scored a goal and the spectators are upset and deserves a yellow card.

He added: “Iraqi players are like our players. After scoring a goal, they think they have conquered Qaf peak and do whatever they like!” While this humiliating joy caused the Iraqi team to be hit and become 10 people.

Askari about the fact that the Jordanian players were happy to eat after scoring in the first half! And after the Iraqi game, Faghani’s page was attacked, he said: Yes, well, this player made fun of them in a way. Faghani is not an inexperienced referee who shows a player a yellow card unnecessarily. Fans usually don’t see the mistakes of their players, but they remember a referee’s move for years. Here, Faghani did not make a mistake, but the Iraqi scorer should not have done provocative and humiliating joy.

The former head of the Referee Committee of the Football Federation said that before the second goal of Jordan Faghani, he could have announced a penalty in favor of this team: One of the problems of the video assistant referee is that it takes away the courage from the referees. He told them many times in refereeing classes. Don’t rush about suspicious scenes and if it is a penalty or offside, it will be announced by the video assistant referee. Of course, Faghani was close to the scene, but the ball immediately turned into a goal and the referee did not announce a penalty.
