Emi Martinez

[TheYorkshireTerrier]

Has just been sent off for a second yellow in a penalty shootout! Or has he?! Ref seemed to have changed his mind as I type…

Anyone else watching? He’s been getting abuse all night from the French.

 

[TeaCider]

Very odd.

That's going to cause a massive controversy if Villa win.

 

[TeaCider]

Level.

Martinez saves another penalty and Aston Villa win!
He dances and goada the Lille fans again.

Hahaha.

I love him.

 

[TheYorkshireTerrier]

So he did get booked but can’t get sent off according to the rules, is that right?

 

[davidmills]

Does he miss next match for 2 yellows in 1 game???

 

[Expat Smoggie]

always said that Villa’s signing of Martinez was probably their signing of the season a few years ago, how the Gooners have regretted that decision.

From IFAB:

"Yellow cards and warnings from the game are not carried forward into penalties but a player who was shown a red card during the game cannot take part."

Every day's a schoolday.

Both bookings were ridiculous anyway.

 

[Diego]

He had me in stitches.

New one for me that! Seems odd to wipe yellow cards at the start of a shoot out.

He got one for wasting time...when the ball wasn't dead. He had the ball at his feet in open play, and was waiting for play to open up, and the ref booked him

 

[TheYorkshireTerrier]

Hope he has some good security getting out of the ground.

Old school keeper, mad as a box of frogs. Lightyears ahead of the 2 at Arsenal.

 

[joeydiaz]

Hope he has some good security getting out of the ground.

I hope the fans do
