Mane sending off

[sherwoodmag]

The rules say that if you put another player in danger,it does not have to be deliberate,both Manes and Ritchies could have been reds.Ritchie received a yellow so no retrospective action will be taken.
Merino will not be done for diving as no advantage was gained.If we had got a penalty and video evidence later showed it to be simulation then he would have got a two match ban.
Diame could have got a red for his tackle if the ref had seen it.

To be fair, in his post match interview, Ritchie said he was lucky to only have seen yellow.

it was the right decision
he couldnt head it as he was to far away so lunged at it knowing the keeper would use his head .
if he thought the keeper wasnt there as people say he didnt look for him then why not wait for the ball to come down

it was high and late and dangerous studs up

ritchie was lucky that the ref didnt see his as a red card

Ederson back in training with eight stitches in the wound and now wearing a head guard. He's a lucky lad as a couple of inches in a different direction and that kick could have taken his head off.
