Fernandinho

If you get a last minute red card protecting a lead, maybe you lose a point. A red card leaving your team vulnerable for an hour, at least half your points are gone there. When you are the captain of your side and it is the third red card in your last six matches. Well that is an easy score – zero. Fernandinho is a great player, but has to be smarter about his tackles. Will be out multiple games now, and will have a reputation that refs will be thinking about for the rest of the season.
