In yet another puzzling decision, one of many in this particular game between Delhi Dynamos and FC Goa, the referee decided that Dynamos' Gabriel Cichero deserved a second yellow card for his efforts. The decision seemed harsh to say the least and turned out to be the killer blow for Delhi as the Gaurs ran out 5-1 winners while Dynamos manager Miguel Angel Portugal was so furious that he didn't turn up for the post-match conference. The call was a big one to make, and it definitely wasn't the right one in the circumstances.
