Very Harsh penalty

It’s a definite penalty - but IMO I don’t see how it can be a red card. Someone will correct me I’m sure but he has made no attempt to tackle him

If it’s a genuine attempt for the ball it’s yellow. As you state, he made no attempt to tackle him, hence why Pawson went red.

Could someone with a better understanding of the law please confirm my thoughts which (I think?) are the same as what TTFL is saying. Although it may have been an 'accidental' foul as there was clearly no attempt to make a genuine tackle for the ball it has to be a red card? If so something of an anomaly in the law?

I thought the second red card was correct. Pawson in general showing more authority and confidence IMO.

I think this video will help you.. it’s from the FA CUP final with Swarbrick and Oliver.



TTFL, many thanks for that clip.

I think its interesting how loosely a genuine attempt for the ball is interpreted (not specifically in that case but looking at some UEFA RAP clips too) its seems that once you go to ground and get somewhere in the general vicinity of the ball you won't get red for DOGSO. I wonder had Luiz simply slid rather than accidentally clip his opponent would he have stayed on the pitch. I think its an anomaly that a totally accidental foul can lead to a red card when I thought the idea of the law change was to punish more cynical DOGSO offences where the only aim is to stop a goal being scored.

Regardless I can see now that under the current laws Mr. Pawson was totally correct to issue the red
