Melbourne Victory coach Kevin Muscat faces a possible suspension after being cited for comments following the controversial 2-0 loss to Melbourne City in the FFA Cup semi-final.Muscat was furious that Tuesday nights opening goal to Citys Luke Brattan was allowed to stand, despite Tim Cahill being in an offside position and being forced to duck out of the way of the powerful shot.Muscat also said Citys players were guilty of lots of rolling around and lots of diving and slowing the restart of play.He went on to claim that referees were using two sets of rules and exclaimed that at least the FFA gets the result they want as he exited the post-match media conference.Muscat will be required to provide a submission by 1700 on Thursday.If found guilty of breaching the FFAs code of conduct, he could be suspended, reprimanded or fined.For the second time in 10 days, it was City who had the better of their cross-town rivals.But for the first time in their October tangles, it was a contested result, and one that Muscat couldnt accept.Brattans first-half strike was initially disallowed by a linesman who flagged for offside, only for referee Shaun Evans to award the goal, setting off Muscat.Timmy has to get out of the way - otherwise its going to hit him ... if you have to get out of the way of the ball travelling towards the goal, Id suggest youre obstructing the keeper, he said.I cant see how theres any other explanation.Evans told Fox Sports after the game that Cahill didnt interfere with the goalkeepers movement so there was no reason to overrule.Deepening Muscats disgust, Marco Rojas second-half goal was chalked off for what Muscat said was the same issue - Besart Berisha appearing to stray marginally offside before the Kiwi headed home.Theres a contradiction here. Theyre both exactly the same because (City goalkeeper) Dean Bouzanis cant move until he realises Bes is not going to touch the ball, said the Victory coach.Black Friday Shoes Free Shipping . -- Whether Jeremy Hill deserves a prominent role in LSUs offence this early in the season is a matter for debate.

The mixed zone is not a place to make friends.On paper, UFC light heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier and interim champion Jon Jones have similar numbers. However, in their first fight last year, Jones statistically and physically dominated the contest. The following categories will be key in deciding whether Cormier can change the result or if the main event of UFC 200 will be a repeat of their first fight.WrestlingAs a two-time Olympian in freestyle wrestling, Cormier was assumed to have the grappling advantage heading into their first fight. Despite his determination, Cormier was able to land only one brief takedown on eight attempts. Jones, on the other hand, landed three of five takedowns, becoming the first fighter to take down Cormier more than once in a fight. To compete against Jones, Cormier will likely need to return to his roots and drag the fight to the ground. He is at his best when he can mix up his striking and wrestling, as he did on the way to winning the interim title over Anthony Johnson.Striking defenseDuring his UFC career, Jones opponents have often struggled to land against him. He allows his rivals only two significant strikes landed per minute. Jones has a way of making his opponents underperform compared to their demonstrated abilities. Since 2011, Jones has made all of his opponents miss more often than their career striking accuracy average. The drop-off in his opponents striking accuracy has been drastic in his last three fights. Ovince Saint Preux and Cormier were both 13 percentage points under their career norm, while Glover Teixeira finnished 17 percentage points below his career striking accuracy.ddddddddddddCormier lands a very respectable 48 percent of his significant strikes, but he will likely struggle to score against Bones.Height and reachA large part of Jones defense stems from his 84-inch reach, one of the longest in the UFC. He uses his reach to make opponents pay for attempting to close the distance and strike. His length allows him to score with a series of unorthodox kicks before opponents can even get into normal striking range. Cormier is five inches shorter than Jones and will need to contend with a 12-inch reach disadvantage. Cormiers first challenge will be to withstand Jones exterior barrage in order to close the distance and land power shots.Ring rustFollowing his last fight at UFC 197, the prevailing wisdom was that Jones underwhelming performance against Saint Preux stemmed from ring rust due to his 476-day layoff between fights. However, from a numbers perspective, it was a typical Bones performance. Against Saint Preux, he landed 4.20 significant strikes per minute, only a hair below his career number (4.25). His striking accuracy and takedown accuracy that night were actually above his norm. On the other hand, Cormier was extremely active in 2015 but is now returning from an injury that forced him out of UFC 197. Despite having only one fight in the past 19 months, Jones might have momentum on his side. ' ' '
