Sigh
"The Laws of the Game state a player who commits an offence which denies an obvious goal-scoring opportunity, should be sent off. "
"The terminology "last man" is no longer included in the Laws of the Game as there are now situations which are sanctioned as red card offences despite there being more than one man between the player and the goal."
