Yeh a nice feisty start for the game. Will be an interesting one. City are time wasting very early on as well which will spike tensions.If the early exchanges are anything to go by, could be a busy night for the referee.
No card for Casemiro's scissor tackle from behind?
Yeh it’s a clear foul on a player in the penalty area. I do need to check the IFAB law where it says that if the player gets a shot away there’s no foul because I didn’t see it last time I looked!Classic player got shot away so no penalty there on B.Silva.
Which part?Confused about the LOTG now.

If that happens anyway outside penalty area, e.g. a player gets clattered after taking a heavy touch that takes ball into touch, it’s getting given. Issue is the one referee who gives it now, especially in a high profile game, will see mass outrage due to them never being given.
