Agree, I thought he was pretty good in general

Some decisions even went in our favour, like when Frank tackled Ronaldo (I think) just outside our area on the right in a way which reminded me of a lumberjack felling an aok, and the ref waved play on!

Still don't think it was a red though. But Rooney should have known better than to shove Ladyboy right in front of the ref
