Replying to @Bruce the main considerations a referee would look for to determine whether this should be simply a yellow card for a reckless challenge or a red card for Serious Foul Play are: 1) What part of body is used to make contact? Studs. 2) where do they contact the opponent? High above the ankle on the side of the calf. 3) how much force is used? This one is questionable here, but it’s easy to 2nd guess on video review. 4) Did the challenge come from the front or the side / back? Side. 5) Was there any chance to play the ball? Nope. Just cynical and potentially dangerous. What do you think?
