DiamondFlair Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Ok, this has kinda been an issue in every FM that I can remember. Its not really a massive thing, and may well be there for a match engine balance issues. But never, in my history of seeing FM, have I ever seen someone sent off for commiting a foul when they are the last man. And we are talking, very, very clear cases. In real football, if your one on one with a defender and then after that its just you can the keeper, and they bring you down... the defender walks. Everytime. Anyone else thing thats really weird?

ChrisCryptic Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Ive found it often. Last man comes in from behind and takes the striker down, I sit here screaming for the red, only to see a yellow come out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotty-corkcityfc Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I always have my last man sent off! Happened last night in the 2nd minute! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

fonejacker Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I've had my striker hacked down when clear in the 18 yard box, no one within a country mile of the last defender. Penalty awarded, and the offender given a warning! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiamondFlair Posted November 11, 2009 Author Share Posted November 11, 2009 The always get a Yellow Card for me. Occasionally its a red because its a Vicious foul, but then thats a red anywhere on the pitch. I just know I am constantly screaming at my computer because my strikers clean through, gets taken out, and the defender gets a yellow. Or viceversa, where i am like, oh dear, here we go, 10 men... only for it to be a yellow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoirmo123 Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 My last man always gets sent, yet the opponents' never does! I'm sat there saying to FM 'Yeah he's gone. Last man, definitely.' Then he escapes with a yellow. Shortly after I'll get a red for last man! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

aiston Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I always seem to get players sent off for last man tackles, sometimes even when they aren't last man, and it wasn't a dangerous tackle. But I never have opposition sent off when they are the ones making the last man fouls. Gets very annoying. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jatravartids Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 My strikers get hacked down by the last man all the time ('cause I use a lot of through balls) and the defenders always get yellow.

SSGTroyer Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I've seen more yellows than reds, but I've seen red a number of times. I think there's a little too much yellow, to be sure. But the red is definately there... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevedaytona Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 So, Burnley are playing Man City at home (19th vs 5th) and 82nd minute Man City are leading 3-2 and on the attack. A loose ball is cleared and the Burnley striker (Fletcher) is chasing down the ball which is about 10 yards inside the City half on the left wing. The only other City defender is in the centre circle in Burnley's half. Just as Fletcher is crossing the half way line, the City defender takes him out. It was clear that Fletcher was going to get the ball and would be one-on-one with the City keeper. So it was a clear professional foul and should be a red card. But no, just a yellow. 5 minutes later City score again to win 4-2. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollyh Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Haven't noticed it in previous FMs but it seems to be the case in this one, so many tackles that looked like he should be the last man and not one has been a deserved straight red. Also I think there are a few too many yellow cards given out per match(For both teams) in this FM but I suppose that's for another thread. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marek_Hamsik Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 It's because the "last man" fouls you are screaming for aren't really the last man. In FM2010, even if a team mate of the offending player is in the near vicinity (lets say, in line or 1 yard either way) a yellow card is always issued. If its an actual one on one contest, with no defending or attacking players near the incident, I always see a red card. I think the actual intepretation of the rule is correct in FM2010, but in real life, refereers are a lot stricter with one on one "last man" tackles. The thing is with FM2010, there are so many one on ones that if the rule were to be amended on the game, we would have 2-3 red cards every game. Something for Paul C and the SI army to solve.

SCIAG Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 It isn't "last man" ffs, it's "denial of a clear goal scoring opportunity", despite what Alan Hansen may try to tell you. Basically, they have to be pretty certain to score with their next touch or two. If the last man commits a foul on the half way line, it isn't a guaranteed red. I find most of the time, the rule is interpretated correctly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's actually nothing to do with if they are likely to score with the next touch or two. It's denial of a clear opportunity. If they are on the half way line and it's clear no other player will get back in time to make a challenge (ie broke from a corner, 1 on 1 and fouled) then it should be a red, as without the foul they would have been 1 on 1 with the keeper, which is clearly a goalscoring opportunity however far from the goal they are. All that matters is if another player would realistically be able to get back and make a challenge before the fouled player would be in a position to shoot. If not, it's a clear chance.

charlo116 Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 in my liverpool save when i faced man utd ferdinand brought down torres in the box with no other defenders in torres' way, i got the poenalty but ferdinand got no booking.

r0x0r Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Said player has 50 yards to go before he gets a shot off at goal. Clearly this is not a clear goalscoring opportunity If it's unlikely that anyone will be able to catch him (ie all other players are 20-30 yards behind him) then it is a goalscoring opportunity. There's him, the keeper, and a long run. No-one else is able to interfere and prevent him having a shot on goal. obviously, 50 yards from the goal line the "last" defender won't be sent off if the next to last defender isn't far behind, but a player caught totally exposed, on his own at the back risks it. It's entirely dependant on if another player will have an opportunity to prevent him running on and taking a shot or not. The further from goal, of course, the more leeway for "he could have caught up over that distance" the defending team are given. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rinso Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I've never seen a freekick for handball either They're in the game, i got at least 2 last time I played Arsenal. Just had Agger sent off for scything opp striker down about 3 yards outside the area, no complaints really as I was winning 3-0 at the time!

J. Walker Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 I've had them happen both for and against...actually, I usually see one every 5-7 games or so I'd wager. Usually it's pretty obvious when it's going to get called. If anything they might be a bit more common in my experience than they should be, but overall it's not bad at all. There have been a couple times where I was really glad to see one of my own players sent off, too. 80+ minutes and up by one goal, I'd rather defend the lead with 10 men than see someone get an unopposed run at goal.

supersaint Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 r0x0r is the one that is most correct on the interpretations of the law. "Referees should consider the following circumstances when deciding whether to send off a player for denying a goal or an obvious goal-scoring opportunity: • the distance between the offence and the goal • the likelihood of keeping or gaining control of the ball • the direction of the play • the location and number of defenders • the offence which denies an opponent an obvious goal-scoring opportunity may be an offence that incurs a direct free kick or an indirect free kick" Distance: The closer to the goal, greater chance of being DOGSO (Denying Obivious Goalscoring Opportunity) Direction of play: Towards or away from goal? Away from goal, i.e. usually gives defenders more time to get back Location and number of defenders: It can still be a DOGSO if two defenders are close to the attacker - i.e. attacker about to shoot from 9-10 meters when hacked down, is a DOGSO even if there is an another defender 2 meters away Based on this, and what Ive seen so far in FM10 (15 seasons), most of the decisions have been correct. But I have seen my attacker being brought down after rounding the keeper and is 5 meters away from goal, without even a yellow card being issued (and no, Im not a ref - not anymore, 16 years was enough...)
