After already sending off two players, Graham Poll failed to send off Josip Simunic for a second yellow card late in the match, eventually sending him off for a third yellow for dissent at the final whistle.
Poll also stated that he had erred in his initial booking of Simunic, marking his card with the correct number (3) but in the wrong column; effectively noting it against Australia s Craig Moore. This meant he had no record of the previous booking when showing Simunic his second card.
