Faustino and Marco Ferreira: Sporting midfielder hit in the face | OneFootball

Marco Ferreira and Jorge Faustino analyze the refereeing of David Silva in the Sporting - Casa Pia (3-0), from the 18th round of Liga Portugal Betclic and agree that Cassiano, the forward of the geese, should have been shown a yellow card for a gross foul on João Simões, at 24 minutes.

"Cassiano jumps towards João Simões, attempting to head the ball, but ends up moving his arm towards the opponent, hitting him on the head negligently. Free kick well awarded, but a yellow card was missing", writes Marco Ferreira in the newspaper 'Record'.

Similarly, Jorge Faustino shares the same opinion: "Cassiano, in an aerial ball dispute, hit João Simões in the face with his arm in an unnecessary and negligent gesture. A yellow card was missing for the Casa Pia player", it can be read.

Minutes earlier, at 12', Kelian Nsona committed a foul on Geny Catamo and escaped a yellow card. Both experts believe a card was missing: "Late and untimely approach by Kelian Nsona stepping on Geny Catamo's foot/ankle. "Advantage rule" well applied but a subsequent yellow card was missing for the negligent action", considered Jorge Faustino.

"Kelian Nsona arrives late to the ball dispute and steps, very negligently, on Geny Catamo's foot causing some danger to the opponent. Correct advantage, but the yellow card was missing", justified Marco Ferreira, in the match that marked the return of the lions to victories.
