أكد أحمد الشناوي الخبير التحكيمي، أحقية حرس الحدود الحصول على ضربة جزاء ضد محمود حمدي الونش لاعب الزمالك، بسبب عرقلته لمهاجم الفريق العسكري.
وتمكن الزمالك من خطف فوز صعب على حساب حرس الحدود بنتيجة 2-1 ضمن لقاءات الدوري المصري.
وقال أحمد الشناوي في تصريحات تلفزيونية عبر قناة “أون تايم سبورتس 2”: “ركلة جزاء حرس الحدود صحيحة والهدف سليم”.

وأكمل: “هناك ركلة الجزاء لم يحتسبها الحكم في آخر المباراة، حيث قفز محمود الونش مدافع الزمالك على الخصم ومنعه من القفز”.
وتابع: “الكرة ركلة جزاء صحيحة لحرس الحدود ولم تحتسب، والمخالفة صحيحة وكان على الحكم احتسابها” شاهد اللعبة من هنا.
وواصل: “الفار في ركلة جزاء الحرس لم يستدعي الحكم محمود ناجي لأن الكرة واضحة، لكن في الكرة الثانية كانت ركلة جزاء واضحة، والفار استدعى الحكم ليأخذ القرار بنفسه”.
وبسؤاله عن هدف الزمالك الثاني في مرمى الحدود؟، أجاب: “الفرصة من البداية كانت ركلة مرمى وليست ركلة ركنية، لأن الكرة لم تلمس حارس مرمى حرس الحدود”.
واختتم: “لكن الهدف صحيح لأنه استُئنف بلعبة أخرى وهي الركنية، لكن لو كان المساعد أخبره بأنها لم تلمس يد الحارس قبل لعب الركلة الركنية كان ممكن يعود الحكم في قراره، لكن طالما تم استئنافها بلعبة أخرى وجاء هدف فهو هدف صحيح”.
The rise of player power is spiralling out of control. A rasping tornado of arrogance, self-indulgence and greed has effectively made the virtue of loyalty redundant during the Premier League era. Players seldom feel strongly about the badge and the colours they represent; instead the nearest and most lucrative pay cheque reigns supreme.
Marko Arnautovic’s January transfer saga served as an acute reminder of how public displays of loyalty, however regular they manifest themselves, are often futile acts of deceit in the modern economic climate. The Austria international was, up until the turn of the year, adored by the Hammers faithful and a talismanic figure at the club.
Arnautovic ritually celebrated goals with stout loyalism. First he would wheel away and hit the badge on his chest with passion rippling through his eyes, as if his devotion to the club was worth the years he was knocking off his ticker’s shelf-life with every vigorous slap. Once he was finished putting his heart through its paces, he crossed his arms to an x shape to bring West Ham’s iconic badge to life, transmitting his personal affection for the club, the supporters and its values with every passing goal.
This was, as the fans later came to find out, a facade. West Ham rejected a £35 million offer from Shanghai SIPG for the bulldozing powerhouse in January, but Arnautovic then attempted to force through a move away from the London Stadium.
Speculation was temporarily brought to an end with his decision to sign a new contract, but a hazy lack of detail regarding the terms of the deal hinted that January merely hosted the first instalment of a saga which is bound to resurface in the summer. The 29-year-old hadn’t found the net in the Premier League since January 2nd heading into this weekend. He has resembled a disenchanted and sulky schoolboy on the pitch, merely counting down the minutes until he is finally released of the manacles which are keeping him in east London until the end of the season.
This cliff dive from West Ham poster boy to bit-part underachiever symbolises a growing trend in football in which there is a direct correlation between professionalism and the prospect of moving to a more coveted club – regardless of whether the attraction is financial, footballing or a combination of the two.
Dimitri Payet simply refused to train when Marseille came calling in 2016, Alexis Sanchez went off the boil when Manchester beckoned, Philippe Countinho was sidelined with a back injury in the summer of 2017 amid interest from Barcelona before making a mysterious return when the window closed, and Ousmane Dembele was suspended by Borussia Dortmund when he skipped training after learning of Barcelona’s interest in his services.

However, there is an anomaly to the rule: Idrissa Gueye. Everton’s midfield anchor has been one of the most outstanding performers in the past two seasons, and he attracted interest from Paris Saint-Germain in January. The Senegal international, like Arnautovic, submitted a transfer request to complete the transfer his heart desired, but his efforts were made in vain.
Yet, since news of PSG’s interest first began to emerge, he has conducted himself with a level of professionalism which puts the likes of Arnautovic and Dembele to shame. Gueye has continued to thrive at the base of Marco Silva’s midfield unit, breaking up play and playing percentage passes to keep Everton ticking over.
There has been no public fiasco, unexplained absence from training, dramatic dip in form or shift in body language. It’s been business as usual for Gueye. After the transfer market slammed shut at the end of January, Silva described the 29-year-0ld as a “good professional and a fantastic boy”, and the weight of substance behind that claim has been evident in the standard of his performances in the last five games.
The humble defensive midfielder often goes under the radar. Fundamentally speaking, the role is designed for a no-thrills, incredibly-reliable and steady footballer. It’s a selfless job which requires the player to sacrifice personal glory and recognition for the overall benefit of the team.
Those prerequisites for the role translate into a level of professionalism which Gueye has maintained amidst the lure of playing for one of Europe’s top clubs and living in one of the continent’s most desirable cities.
Whether Newcastle United have been on a good run of form or not this season, one player in right-sided defender DeAndre Yedlin has often come under criticism from his own supporters on Twitter for his performances and actions.
The USA international has made 94 appearances – including 28 in the Premier League throughout the 2018/19campaign – since joining the Tyneside outfit in 2016, but he never really seems to have won over a big chunk of the St James’ Park faithful, as was the case again on Monday night against Arsenal.
While there is no doubt about his lightning-quick speed – a hugely useful tool as either a full-back or a wing-back – he does often flatter to deceive when it comes to the defensive side of his game, as well as making a difference in the final third for his team – surely a modern-day necessity for a player in his position.
The 25-year-old certainly suffered against the Gunners, with his WhoScored rating of 6.01 the worst of any United defender on the pitch, and the lowest of any outfield player that started the game at all aside from Ayoze Perez.
The American struggled against a fearsome Arsenal attack, while the fact that he wasted the one decent crossing opportunity he had at the Emirates Stadium tells you all you need to know about the quality of his attacking play.
Considering Rafa Benitez is generally a defensively-minded manager – something he probably needs to be as manager of Newcastle – it may not be a surprise that he only has one goal and two assists all season, but it is perhaps less understandable given he has largely been featuring as a wing-back in more recent months.
With three centre-backs behind him and cover from central midfielders Yedlin should have a little more freedom to get forward and make a difference, but he just doesn’t appear to possess that quality and shows few signs that he is improving in that respect either.
Those Toon fans that are critical of the former Spurs man may well be on to something, and he will surely be a very unfortunate man if he isn’t replaced by a new signing during the duration of the summer transfer window.
According to The Evening Chronicle, Newcastle United are tracking Sampdoria forward Duvan Zapata ahead of this summer’s transfer window.
Zapata is contracted to Sampdoria, but is currently on loan with Atalanta.
A five-time Colombia international, the striker has found the back of the net on 22 occasions in 37 matches in all competitions during the 2018-19 campaign.
When considering that 17 of those strikes have come in Serie A, it would be fair to say that the 27-year-old is enjoying a productive season.
According to The Evening Chronicle, Newcastle have been scouting the attacker, who played under Magpies boss Rafa Benitez at Napoli.
Standing at 6 ft 2, Zapata is a powerful frontman and it will be very interesting to see what happens in this summer’s transfer window.
For now, the Newcastle fans have been on social media offering their views on the potential deal. And a selection of their Twitter reaction, which is mixed, can be seen below:
Tottenham Hotspur launched a loan move for Real Madrid winger Gareth Bale, according to BBC Sport journalist Guillem Balague.
Chairman Daniel Levy, per the report, attempted to bring the Wales international back to the club where he made his name.
What’s the word?
Bale left Spurs in 2013, joining Real in a then-world record deal worth £85million.
He has won four Champions League titles in Spain but has endured a difficult season at the Santiago Bernabeu and has routinely been booed by his own supporters.
Real, of course, were eliminated from Europe’s premier club competition last week, as they were thumped 4-1 by Ajax in Spain.
They are also effectively out of the running in the Liga title race and Balague claims that Spurs wanted to capitalise by launching a loan bid for Bale.
However, so low was the proposal that it never actually reached Real, as Levy was hopeful that his current would subsidise the majority of his reported £650,000-per-week wages.
Classic Levy
This is an opportunistic move that could well have been a masterstroke.
Bale was an icon at Spurs, making his breakthrough at the club and becoming a genuinely world-class player in north London.
A return is a romantic notion that fans continue to dream of but it is perhaps unlikely to ever come to fruition.
Such are his wages, Real would have to keep paying him, but it cannot hurt to ask the question.
Levy, it seems, did just that.
Real may well have said yes, just to help Bale avoid the prospect of yet more criticism in Madrid; that they didn’t is nobody’s fault, the chairman made the only bid that was possible for Spurs from a financial perspective.
When Jurgen Klopp dipped into the transfer market over the summer to sign yet another player from a relegated club in Xherdan Shaqiri, the fans were desperate for the Swiss midfielder to turn out the same way that Andy Robertson and Georginio Wijnaldum have. For the most part, he’s looked good, but recently Klopp has been reluctant to use his #23.
The 27-year-old former Stoke City, Bayern Munich and Inter Milan man is a quality addition to Klopp’s squad. However, at the age of 27 it’s unlikely he has much developing left to do as a player. Regardless of how much better he may or may not get, the Reds can’t work out why, as of late, Jurgen Klopp seems to be continually snubbing the versatile winger, even in games like yesterday where they needed some magic.
Across the Premier League season so far, Shaqiri has managed to play a full 90-minute match just four times, and in those four outings, he’s contributed to three goals, with two strikes himself and an assist laid on for Mo Salah. The impact that the 27-year-old has is clear to see yet in the Reds last four games Klopp has left Shaqiri on the bench as an unused substitute. Whatever issues there may between the two, the fans want dealt with quickly as they’re keen to see Shaq back in their attack.
You can read the Reds’ calls for Shaqiri from yesterday here:
The Reds simply cannot work out why their direct Swiss squad man is being overlooked at the moment and will be keen to see him play in their next outing against Tottenham.

Manchester United fans on Twitter have been busy arguing over what to do with David de Gea, after it was reported that the goalkeeper is looking to double his current wages of £240,000-a-week if he is to sign a new contract, per Daily Telegraph.
The demands appear to be a knock-on effect from Alexis Sanchez’s reported astronomical earnings of £500,000-a-week, as there is seemingly no other reason why the Spanish international would demand such a massive sum of £480,000-a-week – he is definitely one of the most important players in the team, but that figure is just downright ridiculous.
Watch the video below to find out what Jesse Lingard is like off the pitch in the latest Match Of The Bae with Emma Conybeare…
Obviously, the Red Devils would rather not lose the former Atletico Madrid stopper, although a few fans would rather not see the club bow down to his demands.
Having said that, some are keen for the club to just pay him what he’s after, citing the fact that De Gea is one of Europe’s best as a reason to splash out on securing his future.
Let’s see what the clearly divided United fanbase on Twitter have been saying about the situation…
Manchester United fans have taken to Twitter to bemoan the club’s lack of squad depth.
A tweet from the official United account on Sunday quoted manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer saying: “Every single player is going to have a say in us moving up the table and getting the results that we need.”
The likes of Tahith Chong and Mason Greenwood have played for the club this season due to a number of injury problems sustained by first-team players.
United are currently fifth in the Premier League, two points behind fourth-placed Arsenal and one ahead of sixth-placed Chelsea with eight games of the season remaining.
Solskjaer’s side have to play the likes of Manchester City and Maurizio Sarri’s men before the season is out as they look to qualify for the Champions League again next season.
Of course, United can also qualify by winning the tournament but they face Barcelona in the quarter-finals, perhaps the toughest assignment they could have been given in Europe.
And fans piled in to reply to the tweet, insisting that there simply isn’t scope to bring through a large number of players, as there is not a great deal of depth in the squad, with many calling for a summer of investment.
Fulham were just 10 minutes away from recording an unlikely draw at Craven Cottage against Liverpool on Sunday.
Following Ryan Babel’s equaliser against his former side, it was looking like Scott Parker’s side were heading for arguable their best result of the season. Yet, in typical Cottagers fashion, they let themselves down once again.
Following a harmless strike from Reds forward Mohamed Salah, Sergio Rico somehow managed to drop the ball at the feet of Sadio Mane before unnecessarily tripping the Senegalese star up in the penalty area. James Milner stepped up to take the spot-kick and duly scored the winner, condemning the Cottagers to their 22nd defeat of the season.
However, despite many fans rightfully blaming Rico for his error, he should still keep his place in Parker’s side as he is clearly the best goalkeeper at the club once you look closer at the stats for this season in the Premier League.
In the 22 games that the Sevilla loanee has been involved in, he has conceded 45 goals which averages out at 2.046 per game which is a better ratio than both Fabri (2.5 goals) and Marcus Bettinelli (2.86 goals.)
Furthermore, Fulham’s only clean sheets this season, which came in fixtures against Newcastle United and Huddersfield Town, have come with Rico in between the sticks.
It could be argued that no matter who Fulham have in goal, it simply does not matter as the main reason for why they will be relegated to the Championship at the end of the season is their horrendous defence.
By letting their opponents score 70 goals in the Premier League in just 31 games, they are already well on course to record one of the worst defensive records in recent top-flight history.
Therefore, whilst it would easy for Parker to drop Rico for the Cottagers’ clash against Manchester City on March 30th, he should instead be making alterations to his back four who have been woeful throughout the 2018/19 campaign.
What do you think Fulham fans? Should Rico be dropped by Parker for his error against Liverpool? Or is it the defence who are ultimately to blame for this season? Let us know below.
