    That looks awful, but feel like the Copenhagen player has put his leg under Rashfords, he hasnt even tried to tackle. Just protecting the ball - but also lucky he’s not broke his leg. Pretty conflicting

      lucky he’s not broke his leg

      I feel like, just as with the Curtis Jones tackle, this idea he was lucky not to be seriously injured is just an imagined outcome. He wasn’t injured because there was no force in the tackle, which is why it shouldn’t be a red.

      The judgement is “this endangered an opponent”, except we know for a fact it didn’t endanger him because he was fine, just like Bissouma was. If you are judging outcomes, you need to judge actual outcomes. And if you are judging imagined outcomes, then you need to go back to considering force, intent, reasonable expectations, etc. By which measures both this and the Jones one are never red cards.

    This sub makes me go insane sometimes.

    It seems you have to break a bone for it to be a red card, and even then I’m sure half the sub would argue it’s not because it was an accident.

    sign a terrible player who’s only role is to run around and slide their foot under opponents jumping for headers. Big brain strategy

    Personally I think red is a bit harsh here, yellow for sure, but that rashford is in possession and doesn’t appear to see the other player I think saves him. Honestly though I could see it teetering red. Really unfortunate accident though, hence why I think rashford shouldn’t have been given red.

    What I don’t understand is, how come they can go back after the play (that went to Hojlund’s shot) continued here, when they couldn’t for the VAR fiasco from Diaz’s (not-)goal?
