00:00You were pretty certain a red card was the right decision, and I think on review there hasn't really been much debate that it is a red card, although Neil Critchley did say in the post-match press conference that John Beaton was very quick to make that decision.
00:17And this is where I'm going to defend John Beaton. If you've got a trained eye and you've refereed games at the top level in Scotland and Europe, etc., then you're looking at that situation developing and you're thinking, Keskin is approaching Steinbender, who are the other defenders? Well, Forrester's slightly behind him, Makata's on the other side. If he goes past Steinbender, and if Steinbender has taken him out, then you've got potential dogzo denying an obvious goal-scoring opportunity.
00:43And that's obviously how it played out, and I do think it was the right decision. Whether you agree with the laws of the game at the moment, and that's another conversation altogether.
00:52I just, if you're going to apply, you have to apply the laws of the game clearly, and if you're doing that, then Steinbender has to walk because he's taking Keskin out.
01:01Forrester is in pursuit, but isn't going to catch Keskin, and he's sprinting clearly towards goal, Makata's not getting across in time.
01:07So I thought that was the correct decision based on the laws of the game.
