Yesterday in a FA cup tie the home team had made 3 subs at once with 40mins to go, 20mins later their goalkeeper suffered a nasty injury,was concussed and lost several teeth in an accidental collision. Gather he had been concussed several weeks earlier. REf suspended the game for treatment and for an ambulance to arrive.
Both teams went into changing rooms. After approx 20mins after injured player left away team came back onto pitch, home team refused saying some of their players too upset to continue, Ref then abandoned the game and said the score stands at 0-0 and said there will be a reply back at the home teams ground.???
I understand the concern over the injured player but surely the match should have been awarded to the away team
This was an official FA cup tie. any help please.
