Adi Viveash, acting as Middlesbrough’s stand-in manager, hit out at the officials for what he described as two pivotal refereeing mistakes in the Oxford United draw

Middlesbrough’s interim boss, Adi Viveash, expressed frustration over two crucial refereeing decisions during their 1-1 draw at Oxford United.

Luke Harris had put the hosts ahead in the first half, only for Morgan Whittaker to level shortly after the break. Viveash was unhappy after referee Ben Toner denied a penalty claim when

Alan Browne was brought down and issued just a yellow card to Harris for a high tackle on Tommy Conway, a challenge some might have considered worthy of a red card.
