Soccer (Closing)

I know the contacts ended up being bad but there’s no intent and it wasn’t reckless or anything. Feels harsh

VAR vs Man Utd needs to be investigated

Had no idea it happened, Clear as day

Genuinely think it was a reckless challenge, but not malicious.

Still a red card though.

He's shielding the ball man, fully accidental.

People saying this is red have never actually played before

Well deserved

I think it’s a red but unlucky which happens. There was no intent to hurt him but rashford’s studs caught him above the ankle so there’s not too much to argue about

Game is gone. He is protecting the ball and the Copenhagen player sticks his leg in the way.

No intent and he was in control. Seems harsh to me.

Lads we can start party a bit earlier

Was confused at first thought there was nothing in it but my god thats fucking awful to look at

Nah I'm done with football

Games gone.

Went from a straight forward game to spicy just like that

How the fuck do these refs continue to have jobs/these games, its actually fucking mind-boggling. Unreal - hopefully can appeal.

Man like yeah that's dangerous and if you watch it in slowmo on a computer screen it's probably a red but like...that shouldn't be a red card

Not intentional but looks awful, hard to argue. Could have caused serious injury.

Ye that's a red

This is fair enough, clearly an accident but also dangerous, but honestly at this point any time there's a VAR check I'm sure the worst possible outcome for us will be the one that's chosen

it looks so much worse in slowmotion, i cant understand why they dont show it in real time.

we can all see what he's trying, he messes it up and contacts the player, its unlucky but a red by the rules.

Unfortunate but definitely a red.

Got a card from the ref but not ten Hag it seems.

Really weird one. Didn’t really look intentional but his foot was so far wide for some reason and it was very reckless, that could have ended really badly.

Classic united

Fucking shocking decision

Clear red! He literally looks and then almost breaks the kids leg.

You gotta be redder than the devils dick not to see that

Kinda ridiculous that. Looks red, but not intentional. Yellow would be deserving. Idk, that’s unfortunate.

Wtf happened lol

Refs got zero ball knowledge.

I knew it was going too well.

Ridiculous

By what fucking rule is that a red?

Wasn’t intentional but it’s still a red.

They should really force the ref to watch the fouls at real time speed before leaving the monitor.

That’s unfortunate. Is relatively consistent with what’s normally given in fairness

Straight red. Absolute correct there.

Just so so unlucky but probably a red yeah

Another case of VAR interjecting to try and make a game more competitive.

Just when we were having a good match ...

It was accidental but it was high. Unfortunately intent doesn’t matter and it’s gotta be a red

Not in a million years.

That’s very harsh

Fuck it looks completely accidental but Jesus Christ that ankle should not be bent like that

Reds like this are the stupidest thing ever, you're sent off for being unlucky... Might as well roll a lottery wheel before the game and send off random people... He was already stepping before the Copenhagen player stuck his foot there, what can he do? Sure it might be a red by the rules, but maybe we haven't figured out the rules.

Never a red. Yellow at most. He's shielding the ball and doesn't look like he knows he's going to make contact, especially in that spot on the lad's ankle, even more so in the heat of the moment full speed.

As an Arsenal fan even I feel bad for Rashford. Genuine attempt to play the ball and no malice in it, just unlucky to get there later than the other player but is a red card.

This is Manchester United

Zero intent nor an attempt at a tackle

Another VAR masterclass
