Howard Webb, the PGMOL chief, spoke about the lack of a red card for Moises Caicedo’s challenge on Pape Matar Sarr during Tottenham’s match against Chelsea. He agreed with the VAR’s decision not to show a red card.
Howard Webb said “A yellow card should have been shown, in the end Caicedo received no disciplinary action for that action. I think his actions were reckless. For me it’s not a red card. For me this is a situation where Caicedo goes to swing to kick a ball which is kicked away from him by Pape Sarr.”
Jamie Carragher, a pundit for Sky Sports, expressed his disbelief at the decision not to send off Caicedo for the challenge.
Jamie Carragher said “What? Have I missed something there? That is unbelievable. I don’t like seeing people sent off, but I was certain that was going to be a red card.”
