          That they do. Im guessing it’s just a cultural thing because there is no way that 11 humans good at football don’t exist in that massive population.

    I dunno, in the full speed, it looks unintentional, like she was getting up and stumbled, and the foot went down. But in slow speed it looks intentional.

      I dunno. If the other player had the time to give a “what the shit?” shrug, I feel like it had to be at least long enough to be intentional.

      And you can say that football players are dramatic with injury, but I’d expect to see more of a pained scream if that were the case.

        The shrug is before the stomp. In the video she obviously complains when she is stood on, but the commonly shared still is mid-stomp before the player has had time to react to the pain.

      It seems like an extra little retaliatory step after the other player held her back. Not sure how the holding back wasn’t a foul too.

      I disagree, it looks fully intentional at full speed. There’s no hint of a stumble, and there’s no reason she should need to place her foot down there. She knows exactly where the other player is and chooses to stand / stomp on her.

      The officials all agree, it was a definite red card for violent conduct.

          If you don’t watch it regularly you probably underestimate the body control and awareness the players have. A normal person might accidentally stumble and step on someone else getting up. But, players at that level don’t really do that.
