Red card all day long, fucking terrible challenge

It wasn't a challenge, he'd cleared the ball well before. Not a red for me, no violent conduct.

Don’t think either of these 2 will have anyone left to face Engerland in Rome

Could end up like this match..

But he got the ball !!

If you have to break someone’s leg to get the ball does that mean it isn’t dangerous play?

I get the sentiment but the rules state reckless and dangerous play warrants a red card. Can’t see what the ref can do there

Yep, it’s the endangering an opponent part of the rule that makes those types of plays red. Getting the ball first means nothing if studs meet player now. If that was one of our players we’d all scream red.

Yep it’s about minimising those career ending or potentially life changing injuries.

It is a game of football and there is a line between commitment and over commitment to the point where you don’t care about the consequences to the opponent.
