Well quite

Had the Chelsea foot not already been there, and arrived just as the foot landed, it could be ruled a collision. Chelsea player simply puts his foot into a challenge, doesn’t get there first and is then trodden on 🤷‍♂️ Not really sure on what planet this isn’t a foul tbh

        What?! (Other Football) - SCC 28, Aug 30, 13:23:57
        
        So treading on toes/ feet is always a foul? (Other Football) - Nelsons final flanel, Aug 30, 13:35:16
        
        only if you are a "big club" and "big club" is defined by the var officials (Other Football) - Tombs, Aug 30, 13:41:16
        
        In this case clearly (Other Football) - SCC 28, Aug 30, 13:40:50
        
        That’s very difficult to prove isn’t it? X (n/m) (Other Football) - Nelsons final flanel, Aug 30, 13:49:05

        The problem is rules that rely on intent (Other Football) - SimonOTBC, Aug 30, 14:12:49
        
        I think intent is used far too much by people (Other Football) - SCC 28, Aug 30, 14:14:24
        
        Well yes, but if the test is whether something is deliberate or not (Other Football) - SimonOTBC, Aug 30, 14:15:43
        
        Deliberately fouling usually totally irrelevant though (n/m) (Other Football) - SCC 28, Aug 30, 14:23:05
        
        Don’t think intentional features in the wording of it being a foul (Other Football) - SimonOTBC, Aug 30, 14:24:10
        
        Exactly 👍 (n/m) (Other Football) - SCC 28, Aug 30, 14:28:05

        It was obviously accidental (n/m) (Other Football) - paulg, Aug 30, 14:09:50
        
        It wasn’t premeditated no (Other Football) - SCC 28, Aug 30, 14:12:47
        
        What actually is the required mental element (if there is one)? (n/m) (Other Football) - paulg, Aug 30, 14:17:38
