00:00I think he might have a word with the referee or the party, he's very risky, given the fact
00:29that he's played by the official in this game here.
00:36So, I've reached an age where memory loss is just part of everyday life, I'm quite happy
00:47to forget this game here, sitting on a nil, heads nil.
00:51I should probably thank the referee and Alassane Amani for giving us a reason to remember it
00:58at all.
00:59The heads player making his debut after a minute, and then 13-14 minutes later, a second
01:09booking, it looked very soft, and he's off.
01:13Yeah, talk about making an impact for the new boy.
01:21Listen, this happens.
01:25These things happen.
01:27The ref here was trying to keep hold of 22, 28 or however many guys in the account, subs
01:35who were flying out of tackles, pulling each other, it happens.
01:39The problem there is yellow cards aren't reviewable under VAR.
01:46VAR actually worked very well today, the kids had been awarded a penalty, it was not a penalty
01:52it was a red card offence, it's not a red card offence, but I don't think you'll find
01:59too many heads feeling that way about it.
02:01Listen, it was a brutal game of football.
02:04Pitch isn't great, there was a lot of hitting the ball into the channels, looking to get
02:10guys turned, and a point, listen, didn't really lose anything for heads, they stay in fifths,
02:21they'll play better than this, they'll have to play better than this, but it's just chocolate
02:27ice, not many will remember, although poor Manny will be trying to forget it for a while.
