Looks like Simunic got the worst of it.

I don´t know, if he were coming at him from the other way (leading with the external part of his leg, as opposed to the internal), this would be an absolute given.

I´m sure it will hurt like hell tonight for both (they´re still both pumped with adrenaline in the vid).

He had the angle before he moved toward the attacker. Was the Serbian guy so fast with the ball that he would have out run the cutoff?

yeah, it looks like it. Doesn´t look like the ball was of prime concern (although the Serb gave it a sweet bump before contact).


ETA he mistimed it, and subsequently did what he had to do.

The guy isn't even a native Croat. He was born and raised in Australia.

quote:

In a well-publicised incident, Šimunic was sent off in Croatia's final 2006 World Cup match against Australia. Šimunic having picked up a booking in the 61st minute, the referee Graham Poll took out a yellow card for his tackle in the 90th minute, but did not actually send him off. At the conclusion of the game three minutes later, however, Šimunic remonstrated with Poll and received a "third" yellow card, this time followed by a red card. FIFA initially noted all three bookings in its match report, before later removing the 90th minute (second) booking. This prompted the removal of Poll from the knockout stages referee pool. Shortly after the World Cup, Poll retired from refereeing international games, citing this game as a direct cause.
Upon the release of his autobiography in 2007, Poll revealed that, upon booking Šimunic for the second time, he had erroneously recorded him as "Australia #3" (who was defender Craig Moore), due to Šimunic's Australian accent.

It's almost red card worthy on two accounts - last man and the reckless tackle. Maybe he was arguing about which one should go in the book.
