It was actually a worse challenge than I originally thought as the side angle showed the initial contact to be higher than it looked on the first one.
Found it interesting that just after the game sky put out a PGMOL statement defending the decision which was swiftly deleted
Quite remarkable the difference in reaction with the Emerson Royal red. Not much of a murmur at the time and Dermot Gallagher described it as an inevitable red card. Yet on Monday he’s disagreeing with the Arsenal one
Both go in high studs first, without too much force with neither attempting to play the ball 🤷♂️
