STL:HOU Such a pleasure to watch Tori Penso live. She is so good and does a great job communicating with the players.
Red card. ☑️ 6/8 games suspension. 🤨pic.twitter.com/SDkZ18e91g— Taylor Twellman (@TaylorTwellman) October 6, 2024 Taylor is crazy with his 6-8. But it is definitely a straight red. I’d accept SFP or VC
Mullen got 10 for a similar tackle. Now, obviously, there was a horror injury caused by Mullan's tackle that didn't happen here, but if we're punishing the action more than the result then 4-6 is not out of line. But of course, we know that's not what MLS will actually do. Otherwise they would have made VC a minimum 3 games starting with the Mullan tackle.
I might be missing something but it seems like pretty standard SFP. The fact that there’s no time left and it’s right in front of the benches obviously introduces a level of shithousery and intent, sure. But it doesn’t seem order of magnitudes worse than a “normal” SFP. Three games would be fine in another league. I expect two here, given the context and seeming intent.

Side note: How did the referees decide that wearing light blue was a good choice for that game given MIN identical top half of their shirts?
