Same applies to your third point...they can only be reds if there is significant contact made. Clearly there wasn't in this case. There is no arguing the fact that this was a poor poor call in such an important game. IF YOU'RE NOT SURE, GO WITH A YELLOW. Too many referees handing out reds like candy these days (and yellows for that matter)
Contact was made to the side of his body...not sure how you can argue there was no contact.
