Lyngby Boldklub lost 2-1 to AC Horsens in overtime after a controversial referee decision, with Andreas Bjelland fuming over a missed red card for Kelvin Ehibhatiomhan. The match ended with Justinussen scoring the winner for Horsens in extra time, despite Lyngby’s second-half pressure.
What happened in the match against Horsens?
Diego Kochen was tackled by Kelvin Ehibhatiomhan in a situation Bjelland describes as a 'clear red card'. The referee chose not to show the card, leaving Lyngby with 11 vs 11 instead of a numerical advantage. Justinussen scored the winning goal in overtime, securing all three points for Horsens.
Why is Bjelland so angry?
The Lyngby head coach believes the tackle on Kochen was both dangerous and worthy of a red card, meaning his side was denied a crucial man advantage. According to Bjelland, the failure to send off Ehibhatiomhan changed the game’s flow, as Lyngby had better chances after halftime but lacked finishing quality.
