I think the Greek fully deserves the red for going in two footed like that. I'd give Fellani the benefit of the doubt.
Woeful goalkeeping from Howard to concede the goal.
How can you give Fellaini the benefit of the doubt? If you seen Kyrgiakos' challenge closely, his left foot wasn't involved, it wasn't near Fellaini, he got his technique wrong and he should have just tucked the left leg in and gone in with one foot, but it was clear as day what Fellaini was aiming to achieve and he very nearly done so.
I think the ref had a poor game, I don't think Gerrard deserved a yellow for that on Pienaar, when you seen the angle from behind, he barely even touched him. I think Phil Neville could have had a card early on for barging Gerrard over on his way into the box, I also think Cahill could have had a yellow cards for a pair of elbows to Liverpool player's faces. I also think Fellaini could have had a yellow for kicking Kuyt in the face. Well, when I say I think, I'm comparing these incidents to incidents in the past that regularly get yellows/reds.
