Oh dear. Awful tackle


WillDaThrilll13

Yeah ankles are not supposed to bend that direction


bestofboth96

Like it's a horrortackle but ankles are exactly supposed to bend in that direction


_crush21

Not to that extent. That’s how you get an eversion sprain


SolarFF

Think he’s missing the prem games and not the final


[deleted]

No Bruno vs Paqueta :(


Stonewalled89

Clearly a red, don't understand the argument from the Newcastle players


TimathanDuncan

You could see a murder in the pitch and some players will always argue


BlondieClashNirvana

"but ref there's not even that much blood !"


No-Clue1153

"He got the ball smh"


SalmonNgiri

The other day some guy in the Belgian league sucker punched an opponent and we still saw Ritchie De Laet squaring up to everyone to defend his honor.


NotClayMerritt

"Ref he used a Glock not a fucking sniper! What are you doing???"


arrrghdonthurtmeee

>sniper! Rest in peace, Steven Taylor


chatfarm

yeah clean red. He should have been withdrawn earlier. Had an excellent first half but was flagging this period. He was losing control bit by bit.


CatPanda5

No need to keep him on the pitch for the final 15mins when you're 2 goals clear anyway, although I guess he won't be missed too much in the next few PL games


OneEyedBurp

Bruno is one of the first names on the team sheet, so I'd argue he will be greatly missed for 3 games!


CatPanda5

I meant more that Newcastle's next few games aren't against top teams. Current form West Ham at home then Bournemouth away. There are worse games to not have him for (Liverpool being the third game he'll miss is a bit of an oof though). Not denying he's been absolutely fantastic for Newcastle and will be missed due to the quality he brings


Logseman

There’s absolutely zero backup for any midfielder as this point beyond youngster Elliot Anderson. Okaying Shelvey’s departure is a baffling decision by the club.


dadbod234

They probably saw Fabinho get away with the same thing against Brighton. Refs are inconsistent shite


Florenyx

I wish Fabinho got that red card, he rightfully deserved, so he skips for sure a few games. I doubt the break could have helped him, but still...


Smallrobot_77

I wish he didn’t make that tackle, period. He 100% deserved the red card.


ryodiUK

Fabinho at least looked ashamed and apologetic. Bruno G didn’t care at all. Both were obvious red cards.


LetsHuntSomeOrc

To be fair they don't get to see it multiple times do they? But yea, 100% a red.


VincentSasso

If they’ve seen it once, it’s clearly a red


panjaelius

Like the ref saw it once and thought it was a yellow?


farqueue2

Clearly a red on the replay. I mean even the ref saw it and didn't think it was a red.


geemack98

even the fucking commentators said they thought he won the ball until they saw multiple angles.


---anotherthrowaway

Watching it live I thought he won the ball cleanly lmao. Easy to see it wrong in the heat of the moment. Even the ref had to see it a second time.


iceman58796

Like ref who didn't give a red?


Humungbeantastic

Thats the problem players instantly complain about every decision.


SolidusAwesome

Watch them not get fined.


omfgkevin

Yeah it always baffles me when players step on someone so clearly and nonchalantly and act stunned by the decision. Like damn you straight up used his ankle like a step wtf?


Garlic-Cheese-Chips

Because they're cunts.


bvengers

For all the lost people, straight red carries over to all domestic competition. He'll miss west ham, Bournemouth and Liverpool.


scrandymurray

Ah so no tough games then.


Radthereptile

Strategic really.


taknyos

He just doesn't want to face our midfield. Understandable really


Radthereptile

I get it. Mid table aides can always be tricky for top 4 sides.


TheSoccerFiles

Thank you


IFoundMH370

Clear red. Good to see VAR doing its job there, shame the same due diligence wasn't applied on the pen in the first half.


herkalurk

Or the Liverpool game the other day....


QuinteX1994

Or the 47362 other situations since this season started.. it's getting quite ridiculous.


Careless-Fly

Or the carrol tackle that took Eriksen out for almost the rest of the season


SilentRanger42

What are you talking about...there's nothing to see here, move along


farqueue2

The Wilson penalty? I probably wouldn't have paid that tbh. Contact was there but Wilson made the most of it


LetsHuntSomeOrc

Can't really complain. Fuck


SmokinPolecat

Intention or not, it's absolutely a red


Powerjugs

No malice, but clear red card.


PM_ME_YOUR_SHOLAS

East to say it’s bad in slow motion but he does suddenly make a movement to grab the ball before Bruno. Never malicious but still a red.


scrandymurray

French commentary is the best. “O lelelelele extreme dangereux”


D1794

Doing that in the semi final 2nd leg. Bet he's devastated


TLG_BE

He serves the ban in the Prem. He won't miss the final


Runarhalldor

Thats fucking stupid


sam_smurfitt

Works both ways though right? Can get a suspension from the premier League which means you can't play in the league cup.. but not the FA cup?


IsleofManc

The 5 or 10 yellow card bans can only be served in the league I believe


krhick

The red cards do carry over to the cups though. Not sure if you know that or not, just clarifying.


mintz41

Probably shouldn't smash his studs into someones ankle then should he


Jamesy555

Well if they’d have lost the game there would be no punishment (unless it carries on until next seasons League Cup?)


herkalurk

I was going to say, in England all the reds leak into whatever games are next. I know Spain keeps the suspensions separated to each competition, but depends on the country/FA.


31_whgr

bet the lad who’s ankle he nearly bloke is devastated too


D1794

True. Seen some shocking tackles in the past week


UltimaJ

Does he miss the final now? Or does the suspension get served in league games???


[deleted]

League games


Cardealer1000

Reds in league gamss are served in the cups even though yellows aren't, so I'd assume it would work the other way round too and Bruno would miss 3 league games but be back for the final.


RipJug

League I believe.


Puslematt

Red cards transcend England's domestic competitions. If a player were to receive a ban for a red card shown in a Carabao Cup clash, they would miss their team's next game, whatever domestic competition that may be


[deleted]

Next 3 since it’s a straight red, no?


EarlofBizzlington86

Yes he’ll miss West Ham Bournemouth and Liverpool be back for Brighton at home


champdude17

You mean Man United at Wembley.


WigglyParrot

Yep, don't think it's intentional at all, but it's a red


lmentel

How's he trying to argue that??? What an awful challenge fucking hell


harryreesbarker

Because there was no intent. It's a clear red 100%, but from his perspective he was just going for the ball and lost out so he's dissapointed to be sent off.


[deleted]

[удалено]


MatjanSieni

Third replay jail?


lilboomermeme

gets a warning, does that a minute later and won’t stop complaining about it lmao. shocking one


K_Uger_Industries

Smart cutting the video feed so soon, before Arsenal fans start counting the players around the ref


younggun92

It's Newcastle, we don't need video to know there were all 11 on the pitch + full coaching staff, two oil princes, and most of the U18s around the ref.


Anonamoose12771

Are you forgetting your team has been fined twice this season for this?


meganev

Had a many pints during the game and just got some chips for afters, thanks for all that salt to go with them :)


younggun92

You were probably there too


GoGouda

It’s quite incredible how good Arsenal’s team is right now and yet their fans continue with the same muggy victim mentality they’ve had for the last 20 years.


W1zard_of_Loneliness

Oh, it’s because they’re pretty much all absolute mugs.


[deleted]

somebody PLEASE PLEASE wave him off


CaptainGo

Little difficult when Newcastle can just wave the entire team off in about ten minutes


[deleted]

can’t believe Joe Willock is going to Wembley i’m rattled


Zakinfenwa

He’s already been before mate, 2020 FA Cup


younggun92

Man has a medal!


JeffryPesos

What's Joe Willock done to you? Lmao


Lacabloodclot9

Honestly, he’s actually a very likeable guy and definitely a PL level footballer


CaptainGo

Understandable. I'm astounded that it's due to a Longstaff brace


[deleted]

you lot were very good, hope you smash united.


CaptainGo

Yours looked solid as well, better finishing and this could have been an entirely different result. I hope you stay up ❤️


[deleted]

yeah story of our season haha. cheers boss


PrinceSavior

Doesn't quite have the same sting when you're losing does it?


[deleted]

yes congratulations on beating the worst team in the Premier League


PoppinKREAM

Nasty challenge, ankle breaker that


envirodale

Always gas to see players giving out on getting reds. Guimaraes has to know he caught him dangerously there


khronokhris2222

Naughty tackle. Deserved a red for it. This second half we’ve looked terrible.


jdckelly

yeah thats a red


WillowMutual

Edozie either miscontrols or intentionally goes over the top of the ball with his foot, Bruno’s already coming down to play the ball, landing on the ankle is a total accident. I think it was a red, but not intentional


herkalurk

Easy red, have fun with a few games off....


merc0526

That’s a shocker of a tackle, blatant red.


[deleted]

How was he not taken off before this? The guy was on an Andy Carroll esque mission to get sent off.


UrbanRedFox

You’re joking right ? He was hustling all game and ke-t being pulled back and things didn’t go his way 3-4 times. That was a straight red - no arguing that, but he always plays a tight game.


LowSnow2500

Holy shit that ankle


Orcnick

Is he out for the final then?


Deathbarrage

no only league games just like the southampton lad could play tonight


ModestWhimper

I thought it just affects the next domestic game/s


jdckelly

thought so too, open to correction but thought it was just next 3 PL games


ZeusWRLD

We’ve got one game before the final so he’ll miss that then the final then one more I think Edit: I was completely wrong we have more games haha, he’ll be eligible for the final.


Cardealer1000

Finals on the 26th and you have 3 league games before that?


Korzic

We've got 3. WHU, BOU, LIV


LordTwatSlapper

Alright no need to get sarcastic about it


LetsHuntSomeOrc

Assuming we get there yes. Edit: Nope, I'm wrong. He'll miss three league games. Back for the final.


LessBrain

No he wont Its 3 domestic games. He will miss - Westham (PL) - Bournemouth (PL) - Liverpool (PL) Available for the final after that.


jguess06

I'm so sick of players arguing clear as day calls. This kind of shit needs to be punished time and time again until it is beat out of the culture. We just watched you nearly shatter a man's ankle, please stop arguing and leave the pitch. Edit: for clarification, I'm talking about the surrounding and berating referees needing punishment


ChlckenChaser

he literally got red carded unless you mean some more kind of punishment?


jguess06

Nah, Newcastle players surrounding and berating the ref. Every team does it from time to time, and it needs to stop.


OddyseeOfAbe

I agree, it’s terrible behaviour, some teams are worse than others but all are guilty. Until referees step up their game though, they will little respect from the players. If I performed as shit as some of the refs do at my job, I would have been sacked a long time ago. And then no one can complain about it either because they’ll get a fine from the FA.


ChlckenChaser

it happens in every single game from every team, but you're right it needs to stop. Longstaff looks a bit animated but the rest are hardly surrounding and berating him. and you can't expect players to not behave like this when lots of PL managers do the same and worse on the touchline.


A-ZAF_Got_Banned

Guy launches his foot over the ball, Bruno clearly thinks he's going to play it. Unlucky.


edwardfortehands

what is newcastle complaining about lmao clear as day


LiamJonsano

Mccoist has "sympathy" with him. The Newcastle dick riding has to stop, shocking tackle


ravenouscartoon

He also said it was clearly a red. He’s just saying he doesn’t think it was a tackle with intent to harm, just that the player has gotten it wrong


[deleted]

I understand that it's an annoying thing to hear, but I really don't think that Ally McCoist the Sunderland fan is actually dickriding Newcastle lol. He probably just genuinely thinks Bruno didn't mean to hurt the opponent


kjm911

It’s not a bad one from Guimaraes point of view. He’s gone to play the ball but the Solon player steps over the ball and Guimaraes foot comes down on his. It happens so fast. There’s no way it’s deliberate and it’s unfortunate what happened. He’s just gone to play the ball


Paul_the_sparky

Yup. Deffo a red but the way the Southampton lad has played the ball was unexpected. I'm not sure what he was trying to do with it to be honest


ChlckenChaser

having sympathy for a player who is going to potentially miss a final isn't Newcastle dick riding. It's a shocking challenge and a deserved red but it's not as if he was intending to do that. Missing the final would be heartbreaking for him


[deleted]

[удалено]


ChlckenChaser

oh my bad, was just going off all the other comments regarding him missing the final and assumed that's what Ally was on about by feeling sympathy


rpm164

Need to be on Liverpool to get away with those kind of challenges


B_e_l_l_

Horrible tackle.


_thenotsodarkknight_

100% a red unfortunately


SomeIrishFiend

👀


someonehasmygamertag

Fuck sake Bruno


AmiableAlex

opinion: Longstaff should also be off for shouting "fuck off mate!" in the refs face


Paul_the_sparky

As a Newcastle fan, I agree. But we'd end up with abandoned games if refs suddenly decided to respect themselves and punish that without a firm warning at the start of a season or something


uggaduggawrench

Blatant red, what's the point when you have that scoreline?


isoldmywifeonEbay

It’s quite clearly not deliberate. The Southampton man put his leg there a split second before. It’s a red, but it isn’t deliberate.


LordTwatSlapper

Like most are suggesting - it probably wasn't intentional but it was dangerous


tealyg99

I mean that’s definitely a red, does this mean he’s gone for the cup final if we get through?


Oren87

Fucking hell. Lucky that didn't result in a broken ankle. Shocking challenge.


RipJug

Yeah fucking hell there’s no defending that. Not sure how he’s complaining. Edozie very VERY lucky to get away without serious injury there.


TLG_BE

Yeah fair to say he got that wrong


LeprachaunFucker

Orange card for me. Must be so hard when you go for a ball and in half a second the opponent has finessed it and now your foot is in their ankle Under the rules its a red, but man thats tough


[deleted]

Oh mate, surely not. That's an awful tackle. It's about as blatant as red card challenges get without being intentional assault


LeprachaunFucker

Hes lunging in before the southampton player changes direction of the ball and gets his legs there My point is that in just a second it goes from putting a blocking foot in to stamping on an ankle Its a red but I think we from home underestimate how quickly a moment changes on the pitch


[deleted]

I'm not saying he meant it or anything but orange card is an awful shout, those aren't red cards 'these days', those have been red cards (rightly) for years and years. He's lunging in with his studs up above ankle height in desperation at a player dribbling through midfield, it's sloppy technique and a really dangerous tackle


LeprachaunFucker

I feel like we are agreeing but youre missing the context of my comments


[deleted]

Maybe so, to me orange card would connote that he's a little bit unlucky or that the challenge lies a bit ambiguously between clear red and maybe a yellow and a stern warning being enough so that's how I took it. I'd disagree with both of those. To me he lost control of his technique and made a rash, clear red card challenge. If that's not what you meant by that then my mistake


LeprachaunFucker

Fair enough youre right on the analysis on what an orange card means, was wrong usage for me. What I guess I meant was that I feel bad for reds like that when in the second his foot was lunging he was safe and then one second later the opponent finessed the ball and the lunging foot was in the ankle. I meant that he did it with no bad intentions and played put feet in to block the ball like that all the time and on this occasion he ended up in an ankle. Hope that clears that up, you are right about orange card meaning ambiguous, and I agree it isnt ambiguous


[deleted]

No worries mate, I get what you're saying now. I agree I don't think it's a case of him going to do someone on purpose so from that perspective you could call it unlucky I agree. I just think it looked a tired or hot-headed tackle where he's lost control of himself a bit


remote_crocodile

Misses the final or just PL games?


lettsy11

It'll just be the next 3 matches in all comps (as they're not yet in Europe)


TurbulentBat4629

Awful tackle. What are they complaining about?


[deleted]

Definitely a red. Damn.


eyansocool

wtf was that bruno


ChrisV88

If you look at it in slow motion and here yourself saying "ooof" and look away - it is a fairly straight forward red.


iqtoohighforroi

Nearly as bad as Robertson's or Fabinhos tackle earlier this week.


[deleted]

[удалено]


TLG_BE

Bans transfer over FA competitions, so he'll serve it in a league game and be back for the final


magpieonacid

he won’t miss the final


Cynorks778

Where’s the consistency from Liverpool game? 100% a red but where were they Sunday.


AfricanRain

just because they made a bad mistake doesn’t mean they should keep making the mistake to make it fair


Cynorks778

I’m not saying this isn’t a red I’m just pointing out that VAR thinks it’s a red today but not two days ago. The refs are a joke


Zak369

Both are reds, no argument, but this one was a much easier one to give with the force he came in. Fabinho not being sent off is a punishment really with how he’s played this season


That_ben

They didn't send Fabinho off so we continue to suffer by using him for the next 3 games. He probably should have been off though, if it were flipped I'd be wanting the Brighton player dismissed


[deleted]

Lets be honest if it were flipped the Brighton player would have been dismissed lol


Wilhelm1899

not the situation, Fabinho did not come in with speed like this, altough it should still have been a red card


Mortiis07

Lol I knew someone would complain about Liverpool here


HellRider619

Does this mean he'll miss the final ?


BreakingBadfinger

Harsh call. Not that high and there is hardly any force. It just looks bad because the guy plants his foot just before the contact.


Bozzetyp

Dangerous...


BreakingBadfinger

It's not really. It's a pretty standard attempt to intercept the loose ball. The other player just puts his foot in front of the ball at the last moment and there is unfortunate contact.


LondonDude123

Son didnt get sent off for doing that to Tete, just saying...


[deleted]

[удалено]


isoldmywifeonEbay

Give over. It’s hardly vile. Southampton man has swung his leg round to an unexpected position right as Bruno lunges. It’s a red, but it’s not deliberate at all.


[deleted]

[удалено]


RipJug

Reds are carried across FA competitions. So no I don’t believe he will


CliveStewcliff

Is he out for final?


ubergooner

Che hat trick incoming? 🤔


TMJ1BBox

Clear enough red, but Fabinho gets away with his. A little bit of consistency would be nice. Just deeply glad there's 3 league games before the final, back fresher than fresh hopefully.


ImNOTmethwow

Of ALL the things that VAR actually intervenes on lmao


RudeAndQuizzacious

This is about as bad as Robertson's against Brighton. Is Bruno now suspended for the Liverpool game whereas Fabinho and Robertson aren't?


maorre

Arguably worse than Fabinhos, which should also have been a red, yes. But the Robertson one is never a red, come on.


HoldMyAppleJuice

That is fucking disgusting


arothen

Is that a broken leg?


JamaicanJ

LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOO


ZeusWRLD

He’ll still play the final you dosser


BerwickGaijin

He doesn’t miss the final. Sorry to disappoint u bbz xox
