1. Gary Cahill: Chelsea v Corinthians, 2012
Gary Cahill became the second Chelsea player to see red in a game officiated by Cakir when the Turk dismissed the England international for lashing out at Brazil international Emerson in the Club World Cup final when the pair got into a tangle. Emerson seemed to be the instigator of the skirmish however when he appeared to strike Cahill first. Cahill retalliated by kicking out at the player and would later
accuse the Brazilian of play acting to get him sent off, stating:
"It probably is a red card but the reaction of the guy is totally out of order for what I did. If you see the impact it wouldn't have been enough to knock over my one-year-old daughter. I'm still angry. There are two different stories. Someone's smashed me in the face but I didn't roll around on the floor for five minutes holding my head. I got up, reacted and tapped him in the shin. He felt the need to go down, roll around on the floor about five times holding his face. I suppose that's the story of the game really."
Should Cuneyt be investigated for his role in the match last night? Would United have won without Nani's red card? Share your thoughts below.
