That picture of the Havertz tackle is also weird, given he only touched him with the left leg. Don't know why that should be a clear red tbh, even if he had some speed
If he had made contact though (and it was a matter of inches) there was every chance of a career-ending (or limiting) injury. That would have been a lot of force into a planted leg.
Red without any hesitation.
That’s always the case when they use single frames to discuss events of the game. Joelintons push looks a lot worse in the photos that everyone uses than it does in video form. That’s not me saying it isn’t a foul, more so that the photos make it look a lot worse.
He absolutely did not only hit Longstaff with his left leg. His right leg catches Longstaff, it was pure luck it didn't hit him hard enough to do serious damage.
Thats what I thought about the Havertz tackle too.
I mean it was a rough tackle no doubt. But he didnt try to 'get him' with his leading foot. He clipped him with the trailing foot and because of that I dont think it was reckless.
