It was not serious foul play. Why on earth did VAR John Brooks get involved? It’s a very poor decision — and Bournemouth can feel aggrieved because it changed the game and dented their European hopes. They would have a good case to appeal the dismissal — and the three-match ban — as the incident was similar to Bruno Fernandes’ foul against Spurs last September. The United midfielder’s sending-off in United’s 3-0 defeat was rescinded. Referee Chris Kavanagh showed Fernandes a straight red but the appeal commission ruled he had made an “obvious” error. WHAT WAS THE PREM EXPLANATION? HERE’S the statement Prem chiefs issued to explain Evanilson’s red card: RexEvanilson appeared stunned with his dismissal[/caption] BEST ONLINE CASINOS – TOP SITES IN THE UK “VAR recommended an on-field review for a possible red card for the challenge by Evanilson on Mazraoui – with the challenge deemed to be two-footed with both feet off the ground, endangering the safety of the opponent. Upon review, the referee issued a red card to Evanilson for serious foul play.” BOURNEMOUTH CHIEF’S ANGRY VERDICT CHERRIES’ boss Andoni Iraola appeared astounded by his frontman’s dismissal. Iraola told Sky Sports: “Common sense. Everyone who has played football understands. “He slips. He doesn’t catch him with the leg that goes high and the consequence is a red card. “It is another three games without playing. The repercussions for us are huge. Of course we are going to appeal. It is common sense. “In the first half Evanilson gets a kick in the chest by Casemiro. I don’t think you should have a red card for this. But the VAR cuts the worst angle, the worst frame.” "I think it's common sense… he slips" Bournemouth manager Andoni Iraola says the club will appeal Evanilson's red card against Man Utd pic.twitter.com/kL2QoyFJld— Sky Sports Premier League (@SkySportsPL) April 27, 2025
