No. The article suggests everyone on the panel personally thought that the elbow was a red card offense. But only 3 out of 5 thought it was a clear and obvious error to not give a red. Meaning that 2 out of 5 believed there was a gray area where some refs could plausibly judge the offense to only be a yellow.

Ok Anthony Taylor

I don't get how you can reconcile that.

This isn't a grey area red card. And the ref didn't give it a red card.

If that's not the definition of clear and obvious, then what is?
