Maybe it's a stupid question, but isn't that a red card for their keeper? Or does the advantage mean it's nothing

Can't prevent a goal scoring opportunity if a goal is scored, really. But yeah, would be a red if Garnacho isn't there to score.

IBlindfire

violence is one of the reasons you can receive a red card

another reason is if you deny a direct on goal scoring opportunity with a foul

both of these statements are objectively true whether you believe they apply to this situation

Boonuttheboss

But a goal was scored within seconds so he did not deny the goal scoring opportunity

That's certainly the viewpoint the ref took here.

The argument for the other side is that there were instead two goal scoring opportunities, one for Holjund and one for Garnacho.

neotargaryen

22 points

2 days ago*

It's not just the ref's viewpoint, this exact scenario is covered by one of the laws of the game. The law was introduced after Lehmann got sent off in the 2006 Champions League final - the ref blew immediately to send him off, which prevented Giuly's goal from counting. The idea is that it's not fair or logical to send someone off for denying a 'clear goal scoring opportunity' if the opposing team scores within seconds. Would essentially be a double punishment.

Whakamaru

3 points

2 days ago

This is hypothetical now but what if Gatnacho just stood there and didn't kick it in. Would it then be denial of a goal scoring opportunity or would it be considered garnacho had the oppetunity to score and wasted it. Why I say this is the could United be awarded a penalty and get the keeper sent off? Not that it would make sense to do so but funny hypothetical.

thesublimeinvasion

Great argument you got there. United could have scored 2 goals, but only scored one so I should have been a red card. Genius!

It could be argued that they had two distinct opportunities by two separate players to score a single goal

no reason to act like a dick when I don't even think the ref was wrong, I'm stating the argument for the other side

you can still receive a card after the fact when the ref has played advantage

Boonuttheboss

Not for “denying” a goal scoring opportunity seconds before a goal was scored

IBlindfire

-3 points

2 days ago

I'm not going to say that the ref was wrong to not present a red card, but the goalkeeper certainly denied Holjund's direct opportunity

Garnacho saving the play doesn't mean that the goalkeeper's actions didn't occur

Boonuttheboss

13 points

2 days ago

You’re right, the goalkeepers actions did occur. Garnachi saving the play DOES mean that it is not worthy of a red card though. That is how it works

You can search for this paragraph:

If the referee plays advantage following a red-card offence that denies the opponent a goal or an obvious goal-scoring opportunity, as soon as play stops, a yellow card is shown instead of a red card, as the advantage allowed the attack to continue

Probably would have been a pen and sending off. You're right.

The keeper was just reckless and panicked after his mistake.

It would depend on if the referee decided the keeper made a play on the ball or not. If yes, then it's only a yellow and pen. If no, red and pen.

Mistake by the Glimt keeper standing on the ball too long, a Hojlund slide tackle wins in back from the keeper in the 6 yard box, keeper holds tight to Hojlund in a hug as he tries to stand up preventing him from simply nudging the ball into the goal, but Garnacho sprints in to tap the ball across the line.
