West Bromwich Albion appeals Darnell Furlong's red card dismissal

News summary

West Bromwich Albion's Darnell Furlong received a straight red card during a 1-0 victory over Queens Park Rangers, prompting the club to appeal for wrongful dismissal. The incident occurred in first-half stoppage time when Furlong challenged QPR's Koki Saito, leading referee Adam Herczeg to believe Furlong had elbowed Saito. Manager Tony Mowbray, who witnessed the incident, argued that it was a 'really harsh' decision, asserting that both players were contesting for the ball and that Saito's actions led to the contact. The appeal was submitted to the Football Association, and the club hopes for a timely decision before their next match against Burnley. If the appeal is unsuccessful, Furlong will be suspended for three matches. Mowbray praised his team's performance, emphasizing the importance of the victory in the context of their league position.
