World Cup beef - is this for real?

[Saulty]

Ghana was awarded a penalty kick and the guy was send off which is what the rule book requires in a case like this. This is why they line up two defenders at each post on corner kicks. Their job is to prevent headers from going in at all cost. There was a similar situation in the Ghana - Australia game when the Australian player stopped the ball with his hand at the line when it was going in from a Ghana shot and a PK was awarded as well as a red card. The rule book does not have a time constraint on when the infraction needs to occur. It can be on the first or last minute. It's always a red card and a penalty kick.
