F91 Dudelange's Bryan Melisse RED CARD Horror Tackle

The Referee Store
90+4 minute foul for a team losing 2-1..... I'm really surprised there wasn't more of a handbags kerfuffle after that!!!
 
Probably won't make too many friends saying this but although it had to be a red for sure, having watched the slow mo a couple of times, I'd argue that he simply positioned his legs to collide with his opponent's midriff in order to prevent himself being injured by his opponent's challenge. May be just instinctive. It's clearly SFP but watch the slow time thing again, this time looking at his opponent and just picture the outcome had he not "stopped" his momentum with his "two footed drop kick". Might well have seen a red card the other way ... ;)

I await the howls of derision and catcalls. :p
