    How the fuck do these refs continue to have jobs/these games, its actually fucking mind-boggling. Unreal - hopefully can appeal.

    Unfortunate as he’s shielding the ball and not really looking at where the player is, but probably a red by the laws of the game

    I’m nor sure about this one, too much reffing consequences and not actions. Rashy is protecting the ball, doesn’t have any sight of the man moving into where he makes contact.

    Ultimately that’s a nasty piece of contact, but the degree of contact shouldn’t really be so much of a decider.

    This basically happened to Marcelo. Completely innocent move but with horrible results. It’s a red.

    Never a red. Yellow at most. He’s shielding the ball and doesn’t look like he knows he’s going to make contact, especially in that spot on the lad’s ankle, even more so in the heat of the moment full speed.

    Are some peoples bones made out of cardboard in this thread? Might sprain your ankle if you are unlucky but no one is breaking their shin or ankle from that.

    Defenders hate this one trick!

    Just slide your foot under the defenders foot before it comes down for an easy red card.

    That’s a red by the laws of the game but here’s my question: When they examine elbow-related reds, they always look for intent, player looking at opponent vs the ball. Why not apply the same logic to a situation like this? There’s obviously no intent there, it makes no sense.
