Hamilton boss says Livingston star should have seen red for elbow that has 'scarred' Dylan McGowan
Hamilton Accies boss John Rankin insists Tete Yengi should have seen red for elbowing Dylan McGowan in the face and 'scarring' the defender in their defeat to Livingston.The Lions ran out 3-1 winners with a trio of ex-Accies players delivering the three points, as Stevie May, Lewis Smith and Andy Winter all netted against their former employers to keep Livi within six points of leaders Falkirk.However, Rankin says referee Grant Irvine was wrong to only show Yengi a yellow for his foul on McGowan, who left the field bleeding and unable to see out of his left eye with the score at 2-1.To rub salt into the wounds, Yengi provided the assist for Winter to seal the points in second half stoppage time.Rankin fumed: "Dylan can't see out his eye. The scar and the stitches are both in two key areas of his face. The challenge is a straight red. The referee has got a hard job but I think he was a bit quick to judge it as a yellow.
