Cambridge United 0 Wycombe Wanderers 1 Saturday 7th February 2015 Football League Two ![]() Team news for Wanderers had seen Aaron Holloway recalled to the side in favour of Matt McClure, while Matt Bloomfield returned in midfield in place of Peter Murphy. Holloway continued to impress as did Ephraim, whose goal secured another Wanderers 2014/15 trademark result and performance - strong defence, single goal victory, undefeated on a Saturday and a red card for the opponents. The sending-off came in controversial circumstances just a minute after Wanderers had taken the lead. With a Cambridge corner about to be delivered from the left, Matt Ingram twice trod on the toes of United's Cameron McGeehan, prompting the home player to kick the Wycombe 'keeper in full view of referee Andy Davies. McGeehan became the tenth player to be red-carded against the Wanderers this season (7 in the League, 3 in cup matches), while Wycombe have yet to have seen a player take an early bath. Last season, Wycombe had nine players sent to the tunnel, with five opponents seeing red. Full-time - Cambridge 0 Wycombe 1
Post match reaction: ![]() Meanwhile, U's Manager Richard Money was not happy about the red card incident, saying: "I've just seen the incident with McGeehan and he has flicked a shoelace at the goalkeeper and the referee sees it, so you can say the red card is I wouldn't say understandable, but you put yourself in the situation where the referee can make that decision. But the reaction from the goalkeeper is well, I don't know how to describe it, actually. Then the worst decision of all, and I've just seen it, Robbie Simpson is wrestled to the floor in exactly the same way as he has given a free kick a minute ago (Michael Nelson's foul to give away the free-kick from which Ephraim scored), so the game has been decided by those two minutes and we've come off the pitch losers in a game where we deserved at least something from it, at least for our endeavour if nothing else after a very tough week." |
