CARSON, Calif. – LA Galaxy head coach Bruce Arena has not yet decided if he’ll appeal Ashley Cole’s controversial red card from the late stages of the Galaxy’s 1-1 draw with the San Jose Earthquakes.
Cole received a yellow card from referee Kevin Stott, and then seconds later, a red card in stoppage time of Saturday’s draw at Stanford Stadium after a late tackle on Albert Quintero. The call led to plenty of confusion on the field for both sides and for Bruce Arena to say that he intended to appeal the decision after the match.
On Monday, Arena revealed that he has begun the process of the appeal, but is unsure whether the team will file.
