Wreckless challenge denying a goal scoring opportunity.
By who, the QPR keeper? THERE WAS NO CONTACT!!! Bamford has said as much. How can zero contact deny anything?

I've supported Bamford when he was criticised by just about everyone, but attempting to mislead a match official is something he has form on. And for the second time it led to the dismissal of an opposing player, who was doing nothing more than what a gk should be doing in similar circumstances (and I'd expect Meslier to do) which is closing down the angles to make goal scoring more difficult. If Bamfords touch had been better he might have had a chance at scoring, as it was the ball was gone and he dived having not been touched by the gk.
