I kinda feel like VAR should be able to intervene if need be for second yellow cards as well instead of just direct red ones though. I don't think it's right to be able to get two players sent off as well as a penalty conceived *in the same sequence of play*. Surely there has to be a limit somewhere
Why risk a penalty and getting carded?
We were all over them during the second half.What did they get robbed of?
Chelsea weren’t just handed an easy end of the game, they fought hard for it and scared Ajax into making mistakes
Update: the second yellow was for handling the ball which is a standard practice if a penalty was awarded.
