Betamaxman 14 Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 So in the end they actually did the right thing. It wasn't a straight red. I think Borodane is right here. When you watch the replay, Gestede clearly gets to the ball first, and plays it. His momentum/other leg then comes through, which I think makes it look worse. However, physically I don't think there's too much else that he could do when going for that ball with full commitment. I know you have to be 'in control' these days, but I don't think the tackle was reckless. I agree with Dane... and the FA that it wasn't a straight red. As such not a ban! [Personally] I think it looks worse than it is.... but each to their own: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=gestede+red+card Link to post Share on other sites
