Match Abandoned After A Team Has Five Players Including Three Goalies Sent Off by Tofade(m): 2:37pm On May 12, 2015 |
This news is kind of funny.How on earth will a side have 5 players sent off the pitch!? Were they playing Shaolin Soccer? Anyway, in a report according to UK Mirror,A league cup final had to be abandoned after one side had five players sent off – including three goalkeepers. The match between FC Loughborough and Quorn Royals saw the referee have no choice but to repeatedly produce the red card. An official told Mirror Online: “There were actually six red cards shown, but one was to a named substitute. “One dismissal was for violent conduct, two for receiving a second caution in the same match, one for serious foul play and one for offensive language.” The matter is now in the hands of Leicestershire and Rutland County FA. The game was scrapped in the 77th minute when Loughborough had their fifth player sent off. The match was supposed to be the Leicestershire-based Charnwood Sunday League’s showpiece event. But under FA rules it had to be abandoned because matches cannot continue if a side has less than seven players. A meeting will now be held to decide if the fierce local derby – which was poised at 3-3 – is replayed. A league spokesperson described it as a “sad end” to their season.
