Completely agree
Listening to the likes of Savage on 606, telling the world that 'if he feels any contact, a striker is entitled to go down' makes me retch.
IT IS F***ING CHEATING, SAVAGE, YOU MORON.
And Torres was cheating by seeking to gain an advantage through simulation. His landing leg wasn't touched, the other leg was barely brushed, and he took a perfectly sound step before throwing himself to the ground.
Instant booking, to go with the other one (which could easily have been red anyway.
The only debatable decision was the offside goal - and that was absolutely split second. Of course, the BBC showed the frame where the pass was about to be played, and Hernandez was in an offside position ( though completely hidden from the lino by 2 players). A single frame later, he was in an onside position.
Impossible to call, doubt goes with attacker. Goal. Now get on with the game and stop moaning about decisions far more accurately called than any player or manager (most of whome don't know the rules anyway) could.
