I find it amusing that your paper was quick to run an article on Ace Ncobo's decision to yellow card Mamelodi Sundowns' Benson Mhlongo for the back pass, without any mention of the disallowed own goal.

It would be interesting to hear from Ace what the rules have to say about that. I think it's important that reporters review the whole performance of Ace, rather than being selective and keeping quiet about the other controversy of disallowing a goal.
