On Sunday, London's "Chelsea" footballers managed to overturn a two-goal deficit and extended their point in the match against "Liverpool". However, the game could have turned in a completely different direction with just a few moments played, when Sadio Mane hit Cesar Azpilicueta in the face with his elbow. Still, at that moment, the match referee decided that the Senegalese deserved only a yellow card. After the match, "Chelsea" strategist Thomas Tuchel had a slightly different opinion, convinced that S. Mane's offense was worth a red card. "I am definitely not a person who likes to show red cards early. However unpleasant it is to say, because I really like Mane both as a player and as a person, that episode was worth removing from the field. He hit his opponent in the face with his elbow. It doesn't matter if it happened in the 20th second or the 20th minute," - commented the "Chelsea" strategist on the situation after the match.
Yes, that should be a red card for Sadio Mane for a deliberate elbow to the face of Cesar Azpilicueta pic.twitter.com/zMozjfonaH - Has the Referee or VAR made a poor decision? (@PoorEPLreferees) January 2, 2022
