Impression that I got was that Neto took one for the team and then indicated that he was unaware of the first yellow card. That is backed up with a host of players approaching the referee, Reece James waving them away and talking to the referee himself and Neto walking off raising one finger and talking to the 4th referee at the same time leaving the pitch. Notwithstanding his crude challenge was probably worthy of a straight red in any case. Again the lack of maturity and with it experience across the squad has raised its ugly head yet again with the SEVENTH red card of the season in the Premier League alone, a record.
Why were we not given a penalty for Rice’s hand ball. Always controversy in these big important games and Chelsea mostly on the receiving end of the bad result.
