This week in soccer insanity: shoves lead to red card

By Tangotiger, 07:45 AM

Go to the 32-second mark to see Thierry Henry’s unsportsmanlike shove on the head.  Definite yellow card.  You can go back to the 17-second mark to see the resolution between the two players.  But the ref decided to red card.  The announcers said the players resolved it between themselves, so the refs should butt out, especially since the refs were nowhere close to the play to begin with.
