yeah, Pantilimon is one of the tallest football players in professional ranks, along with Oyvind Hoas and a couple of others

Kristof Van Hout is 6ft 10!

About 1 foot smaller than the goal :O

 

[I7IDanny]

The only argument the ref can call on was it was 2 footed. But never a red.

Nani didn't even go down, that says it all :L

 

[Subtle]

Not sure that was even a yellow, he got the ball from what I saw. Guess it's because it was studs up?

 

[Puddz]

Don't think the tackle was worthy of a red, but I'm still laughing and will take it.

 

[Subtle]

I predict a turbulent night for Chris Hoy on Twitter though...

 

[Dunc]

Typical Derby tackle. Horrific refereeing. Hoping Chris Hoy gets some abuse on twitter later..

Thing is Rooney does not look at all happy. Even when the goal went in.

It a yellow at the very least mate. Reckless = Yellow. Dangerous = Red. The tackle was somewhere in between.

Why would a ref even have a twitter. seems to be the worst thing for a ref.

Chris Foy is the ref.
Chris Hoy (Sir) is the cyclist :L

Oh. Nvm. easy names to mix up. Forget I said anything.

BBC Sport - Sir Chris Hoy caught up in Chris Foy controversy on Twitter

At the very most it was reckless, no way it was any more than that. I must admit that I didn't see a great deal wrong with it, it was like Dunc said a typical derby tackle.

 

[Shockhorror.]

Kompany makes a superb challenge and wins the ball perfectly - Red

Lampard takes a man out at almost knee height - Yellow

 

[Poppa_ChesterCityFC]

Didn't even think it was a foul to be honest.

Well he kissed the badge and that's enough for me for now!

 

[ajt09]

Well, we'll never know the real reason why he gave it (wrongly). What with not being allowed to discuss things post match

 

[ajt09]

What a great goal by Welbeck. What a superb volley!

 

[markodragojevic]

This boy is something special...

 

[cfc12345]

Welbeck great goal.

 

[sanketutd]

What a ******* goal by welbeck!
