Aussie Beauchamp sees red after farcical dismissal
Socceroos defender Michael Beauchamp was sensationally sent off in a case of mistaken identity as his Danish side Aalborg pulled off a fine 0-0 draw away to Celtic in the Champions League this morning.
Beauchamp refused to leave the field for several minutes after he was dismissed, even though it was his team-mate Michael Jakobsen who had tripped Celtic's Georgios Samaras on the edge of the box.
Eventually Beauchamp went off but Aalborg keeper Karim Zaza pulled off a superb one-handed save from Shunsuke Nakamura's resulting free-kick and despite constant pressure the home side could not make their extra man advantage count and had to settle for a point.
Celtic manager Gordon Strachan says his side now face a real challenge to qualify for the last 16 following this opening day draw.

Now now....talking about respect? I dont know how he can send off the wrong guy...Its shameful. So this shows that referees do mistake too so how is it the lovable FA seems to think that their referee is untouchable?
