What????
WHY?

Two guys running face to face, you do not raise ur leg in front of you like that.

The fact that even Gary Neville thinks its an appalling decision show how wrong this statement is.

Its a 50/50 challenge, Mane is looking at the ball. Yellow card, at most.

Well done on ruining a great game ref.
 
Tbf it was a red in the eyes of the law. Should be more annoyed at Manes naivety than the ref, it wasn't like Nani's red all those years ago; Mane was bound to see the keeper coming and knew the risk in raising his leg that high, irregardless of how genuine his attempt to toe poke the ball was
 
No malice in that what so ever. But he's gotta go by the letter of the law. Right decision at the end of the day. Bit naive by Mane. But can't blame in wanting to go through one on one.
 
Straight red no doubt. Too bad as it was a good game. Now it looks like Liverpool is going to wilt away.
 
I think it was a red studs hit ederson in the face when he wasn't ducking which is dangerous play
 
Those of you saying Mane is naive are having a laugh. He has every right to go for the ball there.

He does, buts hes a foot late, and a high foot in... he had very little chance of making it, but as a football is about the chances. Not malicious, only intent for the ball, but missed got the player, gotta go.

*If its a 50/50 on the deck, the losing player usually gets booked under todays game. (stupid but meh).

It's a 50/50 with a high chance of scoring, I would be more ****** if he ducked and Ederson clattered him. One of the commentators said it best, the moment Ederson came out there he was an outfield player. Should have been a yellow at most.

Yes he does.
Consequently the referee has every right to send him off, for breaking an in game rule.

He knows the rules, he sees the keeper coming, yet he raises his boot head high and gave the ref an excuse to send him off... how is it not naive of him?
 
Jon Jones would be proud of that jump kick. Hope nothings wrong with Ederson.
 
It's dangerous play so whether he should have gone for it or not is irrelevant, if kicking someone in the head isn't dangerous play then nothing is

Nah, red for me.

Any player catching another any in the face with a full running boot while stood up should be a red, regardless of shirt or position. A running full boot the shin is a red, face.. defo.
 
if he's deemed to not be in control and endangers the opponent, it's a red. Similarly to a 2-footer. Whether you agree with the rules or not is another debate, but by the book its a warranted red
 
Going to be a bag of laughs in here tonight.
I heard certain sections of the crowd were acting like bellends??

Your missing the fact that Ederson ducked to head the ball whats Mane supposed to do. Stop his momentum from following through. I just dont see how you can give a straight red without thinking logically about the situation.
