The Red Card issued to Iain Fyfe (Adelaide United) in or around the 61st minute of Adelaide United’s match against Perth Glory last night. The Player was issued with an R5 Red Card for “Denying the opposing team a clear goal-scoring opportunity”. The MRP firstly considered an Obvious Error (Red Card) Application by the player. The Obvious Error Application was upheld and, accordingly, the Red Card is expunged from the record of the player and he is not required to serve a sanction.
