there's no such thing in the rules as a 'professional foul' - just one that denies a clear goalscoring opportunity. If the ref had played advantage and given the goal, he wouldn't have done, and wouldn't have been sent off. And the ref has come out and said so this morning (first post of this thread....)
I actually didn't think Del Horno deserved a red, either. But recognise I'm in a minority there....
