red !!

 

[Salvadora]

shits going down.

 

[DOBERMAN INC]

Hahaha,perfect set up for the 2nd half.

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

BAhahaha!

Such bullshit.

Savic should be off there.

Oh wow.

 

[Eideka]

Holy shit red card for Ivanovic.

 

[Mr. Luchador]

haha new season, same stupid tackles.

 

[bud]

what the fuck, what did torres do wrong here?

this is a clear red, btw.

 

[3Sixty]

Bad tackle.

Good call.

 

[Sloosha]

What was Ivan thinking.

 

[Vinegar Joe]

Hmm...eventful.

Ouch. Deserved red.

 

[Arnie]

Holy shit the ref's combusted.

City should be down to 10, not Chelsea.

In fact, looked a red perhaps on replay. Should be 10 each.

 

[elseanio]

two footed...

 

[qindarka]

Does the suspension carry over to the league? If so, we had better get the Azpilicueta deal done.

 

[GorillaJu]

Wow. wtf?

 

[Choc]

studs up two footed, over the ball

under FIFA rules thats a red card and correct.

But in England you usually don't see that. if the FA has finally decided the mandate from FIFA must be adhered to, we are going to see a lot of red the first few weeks

 

[panty]

Clear red. Fuck off Ivanovic.

 

[Willkiller]

Dis gun be good

 

[Broder Salsa]

Yeah looking at the replay that should easily be a red, but there should have been two so far...

 

[D_prOdigy]

You're not supposed to show reds in pre-season shitefests!

 

[kharma45]

Well seeing it again, I can see why a red was given.

 

[sohois]

That was a red. He caught him right on the leg with both feet.

 

[Tc91]

Clear red. That was crazy from Ivanovic.

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

what the fuck, what did torres do wrong here?

this is a clear red, btw.

Nope.

Not 'excessive force'. Not a chance.

 

[Linius]

One can't deny that this was a red card. But Savic should have been booked too.

 

[Kyoufu]

Fuck me I missed club football.

THE BEAUTIFUL GAME

 

[StealthGoblin]

I wouldn't say that tackle was unnecessary force. Joker. As tackles go, that was fairly weak.

 

[Wes]

I missed the Savic challenge you're talking about but that was a red by the letter of the law.

 

[Az]

kolarov and ivanovic are good friends too..

 

[dc89]

That was like Kompany's against United and Rooney protested for a red. Komp's was a cleaner challenge and he went for having two feet off the ground.

It's a red card according to the rules.

 

[Salazar]

What is Mikel grinning at, lol

 

[K1LLER7]

Time to park the bus

 

[Mastadon]

Didn't look like a red at first, but it was a dangerous challenge. Good call IMO.

 

[Freewheelin']

TORRRRRRRESSSSSSS

My stream is like a min behind :lol

Holy shittt

 

[Choc]

yes it carries over to league

also because im sure its lost now


ok armchair statisticians how many games last season did it take for torres to score

because this season it took 40 minutes

 

[panty]

You're not supposed to show reds in pre-season shitefests!

You're not supposed to kill the other players.

Yeah I know.

 

[Steverulez]

So, we need Azpilicueta NOW.

 

[dalVlatko]

Well, at least we have to buy a RB now

 

[bjaelke]

Game certainly turned from shit to exciting in just a couple of minutes.

 

[Sloosha]

TORRRRRRRESSSSSSS

My stream is like a min behind :lol

Holy shittt

:lol

 

[Linius]

Time to park the bus

I'm afraid so, this will kill the match.

 

[LanceVance]

Thanks for ruining the game ref

 

[Wilbur]

Delighted City are signing Jack Rodwell and not Javi Martinez or Daniele De Rossi.

Me too. Mancini's panicked a little bit I think. DC's joy makes it even better.

Great goal by Torres, bit of a harsh sending off.

 

[GorillaJu]

Isn't a two footed tackle with studs raised an automatic red card? Happened to Drogba, Torres, Gerrard, lots of others in recent seasons.

 

[xintin]

3 game ban for Premier Ass? Azpilicueta signing imminent.

 

[Vinegar Joe]

Yeah looking at the replay that should easily be a red, but there should have been two so far...

Yeah, bad call followed by a good call from the ref. City have benefited.

Milner FK? Really?

 

[Mastadon]

Well, at least we have to buy a RB now

three match suspension warrants a new player?!

 

[Choc]

Nope.

Not 'excessive force'. Not a chance.

Two footed leading with the studs is a mandatory red card. I have a directive circular document from FIFA telling me this

it seems the FA referees finally have it as well.

 

[Az]

Torres hat-trick, you heard it here first..

 

[SunhiLegend]

Red Card Ivanovic

 

[dc89]

Come on City. Sniff the blood and let's get back into this!

But Chelsea know how to park the 18 wheeler. So...
