Description of incident: As Wigan swung a corner into the Blackburn penalty area, both Chimbonda and Caldwell ran towards the near post. The ball bounced towards them as they challenged each other. Caldwell won, the ball was headed into the net and the ref gave the goal.
Date of Game: Wednesday 27th January 2010
Home Team:
Blackburn Rovers | Away Team:
Wigan AthleticReferee: Lee Mason | Linesman: Andy Madley & Richard West
Decision Type: Free kick | Verdict:
| Decision Difficulty: 3/5Affect on Result: None, Blackburn won eventually | Winner: Wigan Athletic | Loser: Blackburn Rovers
Players Involved: Gary Caldwell (Wigan) & Pascal Chimbonda (Blackburn)
Summary: For me, Caldwell was all over the back of Chimbonda. Too be honest, I do question Chimbonda's desire to win that header however, Caldwell had to smother him in order to reach the low bouncing ball. The ref got it wrong, the goal shouldn't have stood.
Cheers,
