Hearts Demand Clarification on Devlin's Unfair Red Card in Scottish Cup Semifinal

Hearts seek explanation from Scottish FA over Devlin's red card in cup semi-final.

Heart of Midlothian is set to demand an explanation from the Scottish FA as they believe Cammy Devlin's red card in the recent Scottish Cup semi-final loss to Aberdeen was unjustified. The club claims this is another instance of poor refereeing decisions against them this season. Neil Critchley's side was already down to 10 players when Devlin received a second yellow. Hearts state that the SFA's key match incident reviews do not support the claim that decisions balance out over the season. They have maintained dialogue with the governing body but, given the circumstances, have made their grievances public. Hearts, currently seventh in the Scottish Premiership, now aim to avoid relegation trouble in their remaining games.
