Pienaar red 'very, very harsh' - Moyes
Everton,
Last updated:
David Moyes was unhappy with the decision to send off Steven Pienaar during Everton's 1-1 draw at QPR.
Junior Hoilett scored a second-minute goal to give QPR the lead at Loftus Road but an unfortunate own goal from goalkeeper Julio Cesar earned Everton a share of the spoils, despite Pienaar's second-half dismissal when the midfielder was shown a second yellow card having appeared to make little contact with Jose Bosingwa. "(It was) very, very harsh to give someone a red card for that, incredible," Moyes said. "I don't even know if he touched him, I think the boy (Bosingwa) lifted his leg and it hit Steven rather than Steven hitting him so I think it was the wrong decision." Moyes added: "It was going to make it difficult to win when it went to 10, but I think we still tried to counter-attack at the right moments."
