Matthew Donohue - Middlesbrough v Ipswich

He’s had a good game. I didn’t like the first 7 minutes where I
felt he was too whistle happy but the level of physicality he’s
allowed has been pretty low but he’s stuck with that so fair
enough.
The penalty is an interesting one and I think some will give it
and some won’t. There’s a very brief shirt pull on Davis by
Brittain - whether it’s enough for a penalty I’m not sure but
Donohue decided to give it.
Yellow cards have only come out for SPA (Jones on Cajuste) and
the penalty incident.
Good to see him use the 8 second rule as well - accurately
punishing the Boro keeper for holding on for 8 seconds.
Good performance 👍.

Thought all of them had a good game.
Agreed with the penalty that was given, a silly decision by the
Boro player to pull his shirt

Ipswich had a much bigger penalty shout earlier in the game for
handball

Would’ve been harsh for me. I don’t think the defender knew
about it really and his arm wasn’t that unnatural. It ends up
outstretched because of the impact of the ball. Again, some
would give it and some won’t, unfortunate for us because the
ball was probably on target but I didn’t think it was a penalty.
