And another thing. When i was seeing the replay i felt so sorry for Nani and it almost made me cry. So unfortunate. I hope he didn't do it because he had started to feel like a star.

why the hell did he do that?! just as he got back into the game, playing well and pulls a stunt like that.
shame he got sent off though because we have no giggs for up to 4 weeks.

Good afternoon all.

Unfortunately, whether Nani meant to come over the top of the ball or not, he left his feet and was reckless in his challenge to the point where he was guilty of serious foul play. I agree with Corea on that count.

That aside, the ref was god awful as he seemed to put his cards (and whistle) away after that. Same with his assistant. The challenge on Valencia near the end was horrible and the AR should be able to assist. Unfortunately that AR must have been the same one who missed the challenge by Marischino on Sunday as he scissored someone from behind.

As to the other posters on here, the ref has just a split moment to evaluate what he saw and come to a decision. He may use the advice of an assistant but it is ultimately his decision and he has to live with it. I hope that he can live with himself as Nani is now gone for 3 important matches.
