Sent off at the end of the match for a tackle as the last defender, Cédric Yambéré was mad with rage… It must be said that the central defender and captain of the Girondins de Bordeaux had been extremely clean during this match against Locminé, and that he had been one of the only ones to survive during this match. As a reminder also, he had not been warned since his arrival at FCGB this season…
Then, a few minutes after his expulsion, following a second yellow card (the first had been given a few minutes earlier for protesting to the referee, editor's note), several images (thanks for the video!) appeared… Indeed , not only was his tackle outside the area (which would therefore not have earned a penalty, the winning one, for Locminé), but our player actually made a very good intervention by touching the ball .
There followed several unfortunate insults from certain supporters towards the referee who, despite himself, and surely being far from the action, overturned a match that, sportingly, the Bordeaux team did not deserve to win either. …
This afternoon, the Scapular Club has just announced that it has asked the disciplinary committee of the French Football Federation to examine this action with images from TV7, to possibly cancel this second yellow card.
“Following the expulsion of our captain Cédric Yambéré, the club asked the FFF disciplinary committee to examine this situation and review the attribution of the second yellow card.”
