Crystal Palace co-owner John Textor lost his cool and then some after seeing his Brazilian club Botagogo fall to defeat.Despite being 3-0 up, Botafogo ended up losing the match to Palmeiras 4-3, but are still top of the Brazilian Serie A with eight games to go.
The winner from Palmeiras came in the ninth minute of stoppage time, with the pendulum of the game appearing to swing when Botafogo's Adryelson was sent off on 76 minutes when the home side were 3-1 up.Speaking on Brazilian TV, he said: "The whole world saw that is not a red card, he got the ball first."I'm not sure if it is even a foul. He got a red card, it changed the game. This is corruption, this is a theft."This championship is a joke.
