Agreed even more credit to Matic that he did just push and didn't punch him, but they can't drop the zero tolerance of violent conduct. There's enough idiots that would try to abuse that, it isn't worth risking. | ||

Barnes has been making them all game and getting away with them, which only builds up to further frustration. I didn't expect Matic to snap but I was betting that if the ref didn't send off Barnes someone would snap. Only human. | ||

They obviously had their minds on the man.c game, it's lucho's fault for not motivating them. | ||

It's not like he went over the ball or anything, he played the pass and his follow-through was what looked so ugly. He is going after the ball, so is Matic, he has to anticipate that and cannot tackle in a way that risks serious injury. From the laws of the game: A player is guilty of serious foul play if he uses excessive force or brutality against an opponent when challenging for the ball when it is in play. A tackle that endangers the safety of an opponent must be sanctioned as serious foul play. | ||

It was an awful tackle and should be punished but ovbiously the refree was right to send Matic of for reacting like that even if it's understandable why he was so angry. Hopefully both players will get a 3 match ban. I think the rule is if the ref hasnt seen it, they can review it. If he has seen, but not punished it, they cant punish it afterwards. But I'm not (edit) 100% sure about this. | ||

Don't see what Barnes does wrong in the context of only having seen the gif. He's trying to pass the ball, it looks like. he even tries to get pressure off Matic when he notices he's hit him. | ||

Will be interesting to hear the Mourinho rant after the game, don't remember if he is still boycotting. | ||

It just so happens that they only review the high-profile moments because they're wankers. Don't see what Barnes does wrong in the context of only having seen the gif. He's trying to pass the ball, it looks like. he even tries to get pressure off Matic when he notices he's hit him. Being terrible is not an excuse for hurting people. He is trying to pass the ball, but is awfuly slow and he completely missed the fact that Matic is next to him... And Matic managed to steal it. Then Barnes didn't pull back his leg, again, because he is awfuly slow. Red and at least 3 games... Same for Matic. btw. I heard that the celebrations in Barcelona for the upcoming treble are postponed. | ||

As far as suspensions go, I guess he could be off for three games if it's found to be intentional. I'm on the fence about it. | ||

3-0 City, lol. Coloccini with a nightmare tackle. Should have been red, even if he did miss. Studs at knee level and follows through with a right-legged kick. Not even a yellow. Wow. | ||
