Animal is a Ram Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 What a silly individual. http://www.skysports.com/watch/video/10987899/ronaldo-sees-red-and-pushes-ref If I was Zinedine Zidane, I'd be wanting him fined as much as is possible. First yellow for stupidity in taking his shirt off, second even more so. It hasn't cost Real that game, but the petulant push on the ref could see him out for a large number of games, as I suspect he'll be made an example of.

Sexydadbod Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 To be fair, the second one was never a second yellow, Umtiti caught him. Suarez's one was lots more embarrassing. I don't really blame Ronaldo for his act, the ref was clearly giving Barca all the decisions in the game but luckily Real still came through.

You don't blame him for pushing the ref? The ref is/should be untouchable, physically and verbally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He must surely not be so daft as not to think going down like that, there, would run him the risk of being sent off as he's already on a yellow card. They're 2-1 up at this point with about 5mins+ left to play. Agreed, Suarez's dive was just embarrassing, think he went down with a sudden case of toothache.

There's contact but contrary to what lazy TV commentators and pundits say, contact is not enough for it to be a foul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The incident for which he got sent off should have never been a red.The Barca players were doing worse during the game by grabbing onto the ref and shoving him. Jordi Alba and Busquets were the main perpetrators doing that. 15 minutes ago, Animal is a Ram said: He's a clever bloke.

Personally don't think there was any way Ronaldo could have stayed on his feet because he was losing his balance after the initial contact came outside the box. Umititi's a strong lad.

In that case it shouldn't have been a second yellow because there was still contact. There was clearly contact by Umtiti which started outside the box which resulted in Ronaldo losing his balance. It may have not been enough for a penalty but it definitely should have not been a second yellow card, and this is speaking as one of Ronaldo's biggest haters.

But it doesn't need to contactless for it to be a dive. It's not a binary state - it's not contact = foul; no contact = dive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anon Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Disgraceful witch hunt from the biased Spanish authorities. Penaldo should be allowed to do what he wants, that includes pushing officials and not paying his taxes. You don't have to put up with any of this nonsense in Monaco. TSSSSUUUUUUUUU!!!!!

Alph Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Tbh I thought it was play on. He was losing balance and Umtiti just saw him off. The push was stupid. Busquets was worse. I would love to see that guy get wrongly sent off and cost Barca a major trophy. The guy is pathetic. Somebody brushed his stomach and he went down clutching his chest.

Mr Tibbs Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Should have been 50 games tbf. Who do these footballers think they are? Can't be arsed with all these superstars who think they're bigger than the game, poor show IMO. I enjoy the quality of El Classico fixtures but all the b******* puts me right off. I enjoyed Villa vs Colchester more last week than I did last night, it's way too much of a drama. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordi Alba is the worst of them all. He has a rat face that you just want to punch. He's sneaky too, he hits someone then uses his speed to run away and make it look like it was someone else who hit the opposition player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sith Happens Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Idiot, regardless of if you thought it was a push or not you dont do that. Looked like momentum took him over more than anything but then he claimed for it so easy to see why second yellow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He does claim for a foul though so its either a foul or a dive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He obviously will appeal because Umtiti didn't win the ball. But Ronaldo didn't have it under control. Suarez was blatant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By that logic anytime there's contact and a player appeals but a foul isn't given it should be a yellow card for diving. a player feels contact momentum takes him off his feet of course he will ask for a foul.
