Let me repeat the rules to you (bolded for emphasis).
“Reckless” means that the player has acted with complete disregard to the
danger to, or consequences for, his opponent.
• A player who plays in a reckless manner must be cautioned

He said earlier that he thought it was a bad call. The point was that while it should have been a yellow, Nani's recklessness gave the chance for the ref to make a decision.
Bad call, stupid play by Nani.
