Referee persuaded to change red to yellow

I’ve watched this one with interest. I’ve paused the clip at the point the goalkeeper commits to the challenge and for me, there’s scope for the benefit of the doubt here as the ball is within playing distance when he commits.
Yes maybe but from the angel he's coming from he must have known he would be bringing down the player as well if not going through the player first to get to the ball... still believe it is a red, but u can see why the referee might be persuaded otherwise and I really think it wasn't the keeper that influenced him but rather another official talking in his ear!
