calcio posted:The problem with both reds are the refs were just following FIFA's orders before the WC that any studs shown are a red. Not to mention concacaf and caf refs.

What happened to the FIFA recommendation of "All tackles from behind are reds"? I've only seen it applied in the Mexican league years ago but everywhere else it seems like it depends on the tackle.

One of them said, that not red carding Suarez didn't influence the outcome. Sure, allowing Uruguay play with 11 instead of 10 didn't give them an advantage. The referees need in general need to have Pierluigi Colina come out of retirement to kick their asses. There were a crapload of fouls. Including one where an Uruguayan player basically performed a Pankration/Sambo hold and threw an Italian player to the ground. Edit: I'm not into non-World Cup football but I think that "intentionality" should count, regarding the tackle from behind. You can see Marchisio lift his leg to try and cushion the impact. If he had wanted to hurt that Uruguayan player, he would have aimed for the meniscus or the ankle. This is the organization that only gave a yellow card to Goikoetxea when he ruptured Maradona's ankle ligaments. Injuries like that should go with a red and year suspension.

Imagine if Pirlo's free kick came off the head of Buffon and went in... I'm pretty sure that might've been the best moment of the world cup.
