According to Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson, Nemanja Vidic deserved his red card in the World Club Cup final.Vidic was sent off after elbowing Claudio Bieler and the upshot of this will be at least a one match European ban and that could be increased to three matches but Fergie has declared he was in agreement that the referee had very little choice but to issue a red card.
Speaking to Sky Sports Sir Alex said: "We have been informed if there is a suspension it will be European Cup, it was a soft sending off. But it depends how Fifa interpret it and how Uefa act in terms of the information they get. He didn't swing an elbow but he gave the referee no chance. He was correct to produce the red card. Vida is disappointed but he gave the referee no option. We were in a comfortable situation too. The two centre-backs were having their easiest game for weeks."
Vidic will now miss the first leg of United’s crucial Champions League clash with Inter in the New Year and possibly more....Back To Home Page...
