FC Basel has given up the Red Lantern in the Super League for the first time since the beginning of October. However, that is not the only topic of conversation at the start of the new week.
Because there is also the foul by Anton Kade (19) on St. Gallen player Patrick Sutter (24), which is hotly debated. Should the German have been sent away? Yes, says Blick referee Urs Meier (64): “Here you are allowed, no, you have to show the red card.”
The midfielder hit his opponent with an open sole and above the ankle. “The chance of injuries is high. If you look at it in the referee training, it is red.” However, it was difficult for referee Sven Wolfensberger to oversee the game, “because there is a different dynamic.”
Two wrong decisions in the FCL game
There were also difficult scenes in other places, for example in Lucerne. On the one hand, there is the penalty that was not called after Samuel Ballet of Winterthur brought down FCL defender Severin Ottiger in the penalty area. Meier: “He clearly puts his foot on the ground. For me it’s a penalty, the VAR should have intervened.”
The Central Swiss team will also have an advantage in the second half. During the corner kick that makes it 2-1, the ball is not in the quarter circle on the corner flag. “Someone has to see that, it’s part of the team agreement,” says Meier.
He explains that in the two corners where no assistant has access, head referee Esther Staubli or the fourth official should have checked the ball position. “The goal should not have counted and the corner should have been retaken.” Another aspect that must be addressed in referee training: “This should not happen.”
In the top fight everything is right
The former top referee has nothing to complain about in the top battle between FC Zurich and YB. The catching of the ball in front of his goal by FCZ player Bledian Krasniqi, making the score 3-1, was in accordance with the rules. “It’s right on the border, but still in such a way that it’s not a violation.” Moreover, not a single Bernese complained and it was therefore right that the VAR did not intervene: “That’s football.” (ch)
