I’m far from a fan Vinícius and Real Madrid, but really? He almost takes out his knee with studs first, and he is so off target that I can’t see any argument that he is going after ball. I’d be furious if a player did this to my team.
His studs are nowhere near Vini’s knee at any point that I can see. They’re facing downward most of the time and only really rise up after his foot is past the left leg.
Agree that it’s 100% an intentional foul, and no attempt at the ball, but that’s not enough for a red card.
There is more to violence than just studs. This is an extremely dangerous situation for a professional athlete who relies on things like ACLs and MCLs to, you know, not be torn.
Yellow, I’d say. Not violent or dangerous enough for red, and not a goal scoring opportunity, obviously.

At the speed of the tackle, it’s fine margins that saved his knee.
Think we’ll have to agree to disagree - for me he swings his foot across in front of Vini, but never actually at him.
