I'm watching the highlights now and...I'm inclined to agree. I mean, yikes that looked ugly...in slow-mo. At regular speed thats a natural movement.

You can try and say that Rashford was 'late' but at real life speed thats a natural movement and just unfortunate. Theres no malice in that and 99% of the time no danger.

And it wasnt a 'tackle.' It wasnt even a play really, he was shielding the ball and the guy got his ankle in there.

Yeah, seeing that in slow-mo is ugly, but in real-time with the use of some common sense? Maybe....maybe a yellow, but if its me? Sorry boys, s### happens. Its a foul tops and move along.
