Martin Galmarini playing for Tigre was booked because the ref thought he used his hand to control the ball before scoring against Gimnasia.It was his second yellow of the game.
Video evidence showed that Galmarini's goal was legal and that he had not handled the ball.The Argentine FA overturned the red card decision.A bit late for Tigre because they lost the game 2 -1 anyway.However it's a step in the right direction.
Here's the video of the imaginary handball and the real booking.

the hope that the video replay will be used as a political lobbying tool vs. Blatter
not that hammam is good, but seems he knows how to play the political game

i was disappointed anyhow that platini didnt nominate himself for FIFA, as he was my hope to have such a respected figure who played the game and almost knows everything about it (despite his comments before that he is a http://www.billigachanel.com/chanel-vaskor/chanel-ladervaror/chanel-vaskor.htmlgainst videos)

n.waleed, the player was Mauro Tassotti and he elbowed Luis Enrique in the face bloodying him. He received an 8 match ban.

not too optimistic
video was used to punish players after the game since long time like what happened in QF WC94 of Italy Spain, dont recall the italian player but he was suspended few games, as he punched a spanish player
