English Referee Howard Webb is finding himself at the center of a 2009 Confederations Cup controversy after Egypt lodged an official complaint to FIFA over the penalty kick issued and sending off of defender Ahmed Al Muhamadi following the initial motioning for a Brazil corner kick.

After Al Muhamadi used his arm to stop the shot, he collapsed as if hurt, holding his head. BBC footage of the incident shows Webb first pointing for a corner after play was stopped, but then, after appearing to receive a message via his headset, changing his mind, awarding the penalty and showing the red card. Kaká scored the penalty to give Brazil the win.

Fifa spokesman Nicolas Maingot says “the matter of the complaint is about the process which led to the decision to award the penalty and have a red card.”
