And Kamara played for a Rangers team in flux.
And Bremen are in the top German division.. so it is a decent comparison.

VAR would overturn. Clear & obvious error. And actually not difficult at all for the ref. Easy decision

And the ref awards the 50/50 foul against Cooper. Rate the ref rating of 0.5 at the moment…

Whoever designed that at Adidas should be transferred over to the ice dancing kit department.
Hideous kit.

Ed Cowburn from Acid FC designed all the 3 kits.

What ever happened to playing away in yellow?
