Wolverhampton 0-3 Manchester City (English Premier League Stage 7 – English International Referee Anthony Tabler):

The most important incident came in the 33rd minute when the referee awarded a free kick in the interests of Manchester City and sent off a Wolverhampton Collins player for aggressive play, and his decision was correct and characteristic, since Collins did not play the ball, but jumped into air with an outstretched leg and hit Grealish in the thigh area. Criteria for violent play were speed, Collins’ use of shoe nails during friction, the area that hit Grealish’s body, and this is what made the referee evaluate the situations properly and make the right decision thanks to his concentration and a good position and possession of the correct viewing angle and, of course, the referee’s video equipment did not interfere here, but only confirmed the correctness of the referee’s decision.
