No It does not, so stop talking pish, he got his head on it, it was heading in and forced Laxalt into a very good goal line clearance to prevent a certain goal, so cut the guy some slack.
My comment was more about the 'retrospective action' thing, the Compliance Officer will look for malice/intent. The Dundee Utd guy was dangerous as fuck but he didn't intend to kick McGinley in the face. Cole knew what he was doing, that was all I was saying.
It's moot though coz Cole won't get pulled up. It was bad but it's more stuff like Morelos' stamp vs the Hibs player a few weeks back.
