30:45 Leeds break. Interesting incident. Shef defender slides in two footed from the front and takes our an attacker who plays the ball on to another attacker who gets a shot on goal, off the GK for a corner. Baldock, the defender, stays down, gets treatment, the referee does nothing.
IMHO the referee has dropped an absolute clanger here and VAR should be all over this but isn't.
Firstly it was an obvious advantage situation.
On one hand a SPA advantage would mean no card - but this is at least reckless.
It's clearly a foul by Baldock - he totally takes out the attacker.
But it's also a candidate for SFP. Two footed, contact above the foot. From the front so the force of the collision is strong. And the defender is out of control.
We have 2 mins of treatment - IMHO the defender is feigning in the hope there is no card. It's ample time for a review.
I've watched it back over and over and I just cannot see how the ref missed it and why there's no reaction. The commentator is laughing at Baldock but I think he should be off. Crazy.
