Red upsets
Pacult rages: “Referee has his pants full”
Huge uproar after the 1:1 between Austria Klagenfurt and Rapid. The reason: the red card for captain Thorsten Mahrer in the 50th minute, when even Klagenfurt coach Peter Pacult couldn't understand the soccer world anymore.
"That's more than ridiculous what happened there," Pacult marveled as he watched the scene on Sky TV for the first time.
"We have to ask for an acquittal because that can't be a red card. Anyone who knows a thing or two about soccer has to see that. It's incomprehensible that the referee is even called out for VAR. What did they see down there in the basement again? Then the referee gets fed up and gives the red card. It was just a running duel, nothing more. I don't understand why the referee didn't stick to his original decision. But that's the way it was decided and it doesn't change anything now, but it remains incomprehensible."
Even Rapid coach shook his head
Yes, even Rapid coach Robert Klauß said he wouldn't even have whistled a foul. "Absolute madness," puffed Mahrer himself. "I don't know if there's anyone who knows anything about soccer who would say that's a red card."
