Krejci red card at Palace was wrong - KMI panel

Referee Tom Kirk has been ruled wrong to send off Ladislav Krejci against Crystal Palace.

The versatile defender was dismissed in the last-gasp 1-0 defeat at Selhurst Park after collecting two bookings.

Yet the Premier League's Key Match Incidents panel [KMI] - which reviews the big refereeing decisions each week - has ruled Krejci should not have been cautioned for his first offence, when he brought down Ismaila Sarr.

Just three minutes later he was issued a second yellow card for kicking the ball away and delaying the restart.
