Southampton appeal against red card for striker Mane

Mane was given his marching orders by referee Lee Mason in the dying minutes for a challenge on Stoke's Erik Pieters, which Southampton boss Ronald Koeman described as an error of judgement on the part of the officials.

Mane clashed with Pieters in mid-air but appeared to be looking at the ball and Koeman had indicated that the club would appeal after the game.

"The red card is a big mistake of the referee or maybe the fourth referee or the linesman," he had said.
