Cristal Palace cut into FA CUP quarters after 3-1 victories against local Millvall rivals, but the victory was taken after Jean-Philippe Mateta breeded.
The incident came in six minutes. Mateta caused a high ball in front of the area when Millvall Golman Liam Roberts walked out of his box, catching the attacker palace with his high boot.
After checking the monitor with the slope, Judge Michael Oliver sent Roberts off, and Mateta received almost 10 minutes of medical assistance on the field before it was taken away. He was taken straight to the hospital.
The Chairman of the Crystal Palace Steve Parish described it as’ the most embarrassing challenge on the football field I’ve ever seen “When I talk to the BBC at half time.
The eagles started to increase the chances of an additional player and broke a breakthrough at 33. minute – though not from one of one of one. Millvall Defender Japhet Tangang nodded home Hughes, beating the replacement of Lucas Jensen’s goalkeeper.
Seven minutes later, Cristal Palace doubled his lead and Tanganga had the other hand. Daniel Munoz switched home inside a six-yard box, but the goal was originally excluded in offside.
It rolled over Oliver, and Var confirmed that the goal would be standing after the ball turned out the tangang before Munoz turned home – mean he wasn’t nearby.
But with the last hit of the first half, Millvall gave a life line. Matt Turner stung the cross, but landed in the incoming veins that fired home.
And the lions started the second half and would feel they should have equated. But after Cristal Palace resolved, it was clear that the game would see the game and that the third goal security added at 81. minutes.
It was the deserved goal of Eddie Ntkeah, who replaced Matet. Flying of Eborechi Eze nodded Chris Richards, before the former Arsenal attacker loose headers home to provide the place of Cristal Palace on a Sunday line.
Parish: I’ve never seen a challenge like that
Chairman of the Cristal Palace Steve Parish to the BBC Sport at the half-time injury to Jean-Philippe Mateta:
“He has a bad kick for his ear and head injuries. He is in the hospital and hopefully.
“There’s a lot of emotion in football, but we need to talk about that challenge. I’ve never seen a challenge like that … It’s the most unexpected challenge on the football field I’ve ever seen.
“It should have a debt, it is hard to look at yourself because it endangers professional colleagues with such a challenge.
“And why the judge must go to the screen, I have no idea … if you hit him in the head in full force, who knows what damage it can be done.”
