Kwame’s expulsion is incorrect.. and the Emirates deserves a penalty kick

​The refereeing expert told Abu Dhabi Channel, Muslim Ahmed, that the UAE-Kuwait match was the weakest refereeing match in Gulf 26, among the six matches that took place in the tournament so far.

He added: “The Mauritanian referee, Dahan, ignored the award of a penalty kick that was correct after the national team player, Hareb Abdullah, was exposed to an obstruction that was clear. Unfortunately, the referee was not summoned by the VAR to watch the play.”

He continued: “Dahane was harsh on Kouame when he showed him the second yellow card to the player, despite the fact that there was no reason to punish the player from an administrative standpoint. Therefore, this decision, and the one before it, not to award the penalty kick, had a significant impact on the outcome of the match.”
