Rudiger got carded for that hit though didnt he?

I didnt see the replay so I dont know what happened, I initially thought it was just cynical contact that you see all the time, a player committing an professional foul and taking the card.

But De Bruyne looked like he got hit by a truck, which I was not expecting.

I hate those fouls.

I know its cynical and simplistic to just say 'if you take a player out of the game you should be out of the game too' but there are times when you can see why people come to those beliefs.
