(Video) Shocking! West Brom Defender Craig Dawson Elbows Crystal Palace Keeper Julian Speroni In The Face but Goal Stands?

Unbelievable.

It’s often commented on that keeper’s receive far too much protection from referees and it’s true that usually any, even minimal, contact will lead to the whistle being blown.

This perhaps makes this decision all the more shocking. Watch as West Brom defender Craig Dawson catches Crystal Palace keeper Julian Speroni full in the face with his elbow and the Baggies subsequently score and the goal is given.

Shocking.
