Philippe Clement rues unseen Rangers red card as boss adamant ‘touchy toes’ is no grounds for dismissal
Philippe Clement rues unseen Rangers red card as boss adamant ‘touchy toes’ is no grounds for dismissal
believes that referee Don Robertson should have given Aberdeen a straight red card. The Ibrox boss was upbeat
following his team’s 2-1 victory over the Dons, which tied them with Celtic,
but he was also displeased with two
crucial calls. The Belgian felt that Duk should have been sent off for the arm that struck Connor Goldson’s chin in the
closing seconds, and he feels Sterling was unfairly sent off after the man in the middle stuck with his original
decision to send him for an early bath for a crushing tackle on Jack Mackenzie.
“Dujon, for me, slipped, and he touches the opponent’s toes,” stated Clement.
Okay, this is definitely a yellow card.
There will be a lot of red cards if you dish them out for stepping on your opponent’s toes. I think Connor Goldson
should get a red in the face. I understand that refereeing is the hardest job in the world; I wouldn’t want to be in their
position, yet I still go about my daily business and make mistakes.
We must acknowledge that a decision was made.
And Clement is utterly convinced he is watching a new Rangers who are turbo-charged with the confidence needed
to handle the looming pressures of a straight title shoot-out with Celtic. And he heaped praise on the role the Ibrox
punters have in roaring them to glory.
