Cannot believe Hendrie is trying to defend that - they should be thankful they’ve got away with a red

Never a penalty. Football will soon  be a non contact sport.

He takes his leg out with studs to the knee. Reckless and out of control.

Only reason it isn't a red is the double jeopardy rule, how anyone's saying that isn't a pen??

Doesn't apply to dangerous play, should have been a straight red.

[Md9]

His foot was so high doesn’t matter if got ball first 

[Aus Fox]

Having watched the tackle back, not only is it a clear penalty, it should also be a red card! Lucky bastards 

[JimJams]

Hendrie is off his tits?!

What is he supposed to do there? Well, you pleb, if you can't control yourself whilst making the challenge, here's an idea.... Don't make the challenge?

Commentator “it is high, but the ball is high and it’s there to be won”

 

the height of the ball doesn’t have any change on the fact the defender planted his boot with force and momentum on KDH leg. Could have broken his leg.

Get the flip in cmon now . Class showing through finally

It is, Mark. 

 

Doesn't matter if he wins the ball, it's unbelievably reckless and he goes through the knee with his studs at height and with pace. It's a foul because it's dangerous play and it's a penalty. 

 

Remember when Vards got a red card against Wolves a couple years ago? He won the ball and we were all outraged but he went straight through the ball and took out the player dangerously at the same time. 

 

It's just football in this day and age. You can't fly wildly in to tackles now and not give away fouls.

Lee Hendrie is on the sniff again, deluded twat

Think we've done well after a shaky start. Kept our composure 

Lmao perfect timing 

[hejammy]

Fact is he went in recklessly. If KDH has his foot planted then it could easily have been a break somewhere. So 100% a penalty and you could argue that's a red card. 

[Sly]

That’s a red as well. 
 

That was wild from Fatawu. 
 

Edit : on second thoughts, that’s harsh

Had to even things up there, couldn't get that red out quick enough 

[Jimothy]

What is Lee Hendrie in about? "The ball is high but the balls there to be won." Not if its that high and you go on like that though.

Give over - it was 100% there to be won 

So you can make a reckless tackle as long as you get the ball? You're clearly on the wind up mate, his studs make clear contact above his knee ffs

[Sir Shep]

Idiot

You can still send them off for dangerous play

Once again showing the terrible quality of the championship and our actual quality. They’re on top all half, we don’t lose our heads, they lose concentration for a moment , we go one up.

Also how is that not a red? If there’s var or we are the home team, that’s always gonna be a red. Knee high, studs up, completely out of control 

[FosseSpark]

Thats a red.

[Tielemans63]

Oh ****
