It was a truly bizarre afternoon at Elland Road More: https://t.co/KqbZ3gZyO9 pic.twitter.com/HMWMJjF1V9— Sky Sports Football (@SkyFootball) April 28, 2019In between these extraordinary scenes, though, a melee in the 18-yard box broke out where Leeds striker Patrick Bamford hit the deck clutching his face.It appeared Anwar El Ghazi had struck him, however, replays showed he went down with no contact from his opponent. The damage had already been done by that point as El Ghazi was shown a red card.Sky Sports Football4
HOW THE DRAMA UNFOLDED
When Jonathan Kodjia went down injured for Villa, the away team stopped chasing the ball as Tyler Roberts slowed down as if to kick it out.He didn’t and instead set up Mateusz Klich, who charged towards the Villa goal and curled the ball past Jed Steer.This is what enraged the Villa bench, players and fans and, after things had calmed down, Leeds manager Marcelo Bielsa ordered his team to allow Villa to score an equaliser.The most controversial goal of the season, bar NONE!

Anwar El Ghazi gets sent off pic.twitter.com/BHbLhr2uGb— Soccer AM (@SoccerAM) April 28, 2019We gave the goal back. The facts are what everyone saw,” Bielsa said.English football is known for sportsmanship so I dont have to comment on this kind of thing, which is common in England.On the decision to let Villa score, Shearer wrote: “I’m not sure players should get involved in kicking the ball out.“There is nothing in the laws that says they have o when it’s not a head injury. But once one team has done it, which Villa did in the 59th minute, then Leeds should follow suit.“Whether they should allow a team to equalise is another matter!”4
