Unless he’s denied a goal scoring opportunity, then it can’t be a red and a penalty.

 

Wrong, dangerous play is dangerous play.

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. 

Should have been a red then, if he's giving Fatawu one for that where he hasn't even caught the player. Ridiculous

[Rasmic123]

That's a shocking decision for the red

[justfoxes]

Not a straight Red a yellow at least ffs 

[les-tah]

He doesnt even have his studs up🤣🤣🤣🤣

[The Guvnor]

Whether it should or shouldn’t be a red it was a reckless challenge.

[TrentFox]

Insane decision. This ref wouldn’t know a red card if I shoved one up his arse. Which is probably what should now happen. 

[eastendfox]

Classic case of a ref thinking he made too many decisions one way then over reacting the other. Oh well, another test for this team. 

[Guest kristianity77]

That's an absolutely absurd decision.  It's a yellow no doubt but that's never a red card no matter how you look at it.  It's no worse than the tackle that got us our penalty.  Where was the red then in that case?  

 

Ref has lost his head there

Yes it can if it's deemed dangerous and reckless 

[ealingfox]

Ref completely suckered in by the crowd, players reaction and wanting to even up the penalty. Was a silly challenge from⁸ Fatawu though.

No issue with the Fatawu one if he sends Thomas as well

[KingsX]

[Guest BlueBrett]

I actually love the way he flies into stuff.  One of the things that make him so great to watch. He's so fast twitch and springy like when he's defending back post and outjumps everyone despite his size. Challenge was reckless but never a red. Hope Enzo doesn't try to coach the crazy out of him

He's got both of those calls pretty much bang on. 

 

That's a ridiculous challenge from Fatawu. 

You stupid 😂😂 thats is a tackle not off the ground clearest yellow you will ever see

[Corky]

Just didn't need to get involved. We had the lead, nearly half time, safe area of the pitch with emotions high, just don't lunge in.

[Tielemans63]

He's levelled it up there. What a fanny 

[studentofthegame]

Commentator is absolutely tapped in the head going on about how bad of a challenge that was, it's a firm yellow and nothing more, when you combine that with not sending the coventry player off the ref has fully bottled it here

So if he smacked him in the face it wouldn’t be a red? Dangerous play is dangerous plat, wherever on the pitch it is 

[Cadno'r Cymoedd]

Think the ref probably got both right.

Definitely did it to even things up!

[Mark_w]

Gives the penalty because we’d appealed for a couple already. Gives that clear yellow a red because he gave the penalty. What a shambles.

[foxes_rule1978]

he keeps his feet on the ground and studs not showing, never a red… the challenge for the penalty was though 

[murphy]

The timing of it though 

 

Just had to see out another 90 seconds.  I think that has cost the game.
