Im not saying that its the worst thing Ive ever seen - but even in a physical game and rough game like NFL, if you throw a punch in a cowardly way like that you deserve to be sent off.
Its a shame, cos it does taint what was up to that point a great performance by the lad.
I watched the whole game, BBC coverage was pretty good, except for the fact that the host called a TD a try a couple of times.
Oh, and I respect every sport has its own traditions - but isnt a bit ridicolous that each team needs 4 players (and an army general!) to toss the coin at the start of the game???

he should have been thrown off so yeah it would be the equivalent of a red.. although in American football, it's yellow flags for fouls.. not cards.
I can only imagine what Frank Fucking Lampard is thinking if he saw this incident with no dismissal hahaha
