Default Goalkeeper sent off for handball?

No, it wasn't a bug.

Getafe 1 - 0 Barcelona 88th minute

Akinfeev goes forward for the corner after I set the mentality all out attack. The corner is whipped in by Nasri and who gets on the end of it? Who else but Akinfeev, however the referee blows his whistle as he has spotted he tried to punch the ball into the goal. A nice try by the goalkeeper who seemingly forgot you can only handle in your own area. A straight red and a 2 week fine swiftly follows.

Have you ever seen this before on FM?

I think the number of goalkeeper red cards needs to be increased.
I haven't heard of that many let alone seen them myself.

In real life keepers are usually sent off for handling the ball outside the area, since it would constitute denying a clear goal scoring opportunity.

The keeper handling the ball when he's gone forward for a corner is very unusual. I've never seen it it the game or real life. I can understand why the game inteprets it that way, but I bet it drove you nuts at the time!

I have never ever seen a goalkeeper sent off on CM or FM and as themoffster says they need to be increased.

He'd still only be 34. To me that'd be like Raul finishing his career at Barcelona.

Real Madrid released him and I looked on their transfers out and spotted him. He's only second choice though as he's not quite as good as before.

It didn't drive me nuts as I was quite bemused and found it funny. The Board didn't see it that way though and like to remind me every month now :p

I've personally never seen a goalkeeper being sent off, that might be an improvement for the future.

Not sure he should have been sent off though as this was only a hand ball. They would have to make an amazing shot for that to have gone in i think that should have been just a yellow and i would have thought that its a bug as this would never happen in the real game
