Mååå bare ta med Jake Coopers kommentarer til denne kampen
I bold ser vi hvorfor han gjorde som han gjorde...
Til og med Dermot Gallagher mente det var straffe/uvisning:
The referee dismissed Leeds' claims for a penalty, something ex-Premier League official Dermot Gallagher has since described as a mistake, meaning Cooper escaped punishment and saw out the remainder of the contest.
Men ja, tilbake til Jake Cooper og hans kommentarer til lokalpressen:
"I felt a bit harshly done by," he told the South London Press. "I said to the ref as we were walking in at half-time, 'You know I have given one little tiny foul away and you are telling me I’m on my last warning here'.
"Obviously they slow-motioned the challenge in the penalty area with Rodon. If they think that is a penalty, fair enough. But that’s never been a penalty.
“The little bit of a scuffle in the corner (with Gnonto),
trying to get our fans going. Having that kind of battle mentality we went into the game with – tried to spark that off. It worked to an extent but I still managed to get booked even though I barely did anything.”
He added: “I was just trying to bide my time and wind him up a little bit – like we were the whole team, just to see if they’d react. He did a little bit.
It’s one of those gameplaying things – we did it with Norwich at The Den.
"We were just trying to spark something off – you know what Elland Road is like, you need to have something go in your favour or you’re in big trouble. I don’t think the ref was completely fair with us."
