Reid To Contest Matteo Booking

Last updated : 26 August 2003 By Sam
Matteo was booked for what appeared to be a perfectly good tackle on Spurs striker Helga Postiga and Reid is to ask the official to rescind the yellow card dished out.

Ironically Spurs scored from the resulting free-kick through Freddie Kanoute.

"Matteo was not happy as he came off because he got the ball," said the Leeds boss.

"I would like to get the booking rescinded and will be asking the referee to look at it again. They are in danger of making this a non-contact sport and that is pathetic."
