Just unlucky that his leg landed on the ball that way

A bit, but he still came in straight leg studs out. That's tempting fate.


Rewatch it. There was no other way with how the ball was under his calf

You bend your legs and don't extend. You can't go studs out and not realize that can happen.


Don't care. He couldn't retract his leg. Slow mo made it look bad but it was practically bang bang


Bro it worked live speed, hes coming in full speed lunging the whole time
Always a red


Because the ball was under his calf


He was never retracting his leg his goal was to make a crunching tackle

These officials from other parts of the world have no idea how to officiate Mexico games. They don't know that if you don't stop it early you'll get a **** ton of nonsense for 90…

Rewatched it, straight red.

The ball made his foot bounce up, but he still led with his studs and would've gotten him on the boot or ankle. It's the right call.

Why was that not a red? Is a takedown in the box not also a card?

The GK is making a play on the ball. It should be DOGSO yellow.

Lot of time left, could still be 2-3 more goals


Could have that many send offs as well

I've watched enough CONCACF to know how this could go

I mean it's textbook SFP. He's coming in a speed, studs up, leg locked straight out and flushed the guy mid shin. You can't miss that call.

They watched too many videos from the Scot's and the Dutch in America and thought it was a good idea.

Akin to walking into Baton Rouge on a Saturday night wearing an Aggie jersey. But maybe multiplied by 3.

Imagine facing a team down a man and still allowing a goal.

The curse lives on.
It could be that your purpose in life is to serve as a warning to others. Explains why I come with a warning label. Life is short, drink jager with red bull.

He's originally Iranian and emigrated to Australia about 10 years ago.

Do these announcers ever mention the name of the stadium as much as they have tonight in other stadiums?
