Nah, he knew exactly what he was doing. He tried to use the cover of his momentum from the good tackle by leaving a little in the follow through.

It allowed Foden to milk the kick to his calf fully, and rolled around like Mike Tyson had uppercut him. I think Felipe was more annoyed with himself that if he was going to get sent off, he should’ve kicked Foden harder :rofl:

Both as bad as each other…ban em both…

Does any one of the big boys ever lose graciously or without blaming the ref?

And as for Atletico they are a disgrace in every facet of the game.

From the Guardian:

Post mortem of a brawl

  1. Felipe slides in to dispossess Foden, (possibly deliberately) mistiming his tackle completely.

  2. He throws a little kick Foden’s way as a little bonus.

  3. Having been kicked off the pitch, Foden rolls back on to scream in agony so the ref will have to stop play and allow the physio on.

  4. Stefan Savic steams in and tries to drag Foden to his feet.

  5. Assorted plasyers, substitutes and backroom staff get involved prompting mass handbags.

  6. Savic gets all up in Raheem Sterling’s grill, butting him slightly.

  7. Jack Grealish, an unuused substitute, calls Savic the c-word.

  8. Savic pulls Grealish’s hair.

  9. Felipe gets sent off and goes absolutely ballistic.

  10. Felipe is dragged away towards the tunnel by a member of Atletico’s backroom staff.

  11. Savic is booked.

  12. Nathan Ake is booked and I think that about covers it.

Perhaps Real can pound on them further.

So the semis are set.

Real Madrid v Man City
Villareal v LIVERPOOL

Fully expect us to make the final, byt expect it to be uncomfortable and awkward to get there.

Really hope Real dump City out too.
