it was yellow not a red, even madrid players knew it, arbelloa even said it was accidental by nani - no malicious intent. Nani was attempting to control the ball, a genuine 50/50 chance of winning the ball, de jong had his eyes on alonso, fully intentional, it was a reckless challenge, nani's one wasn't even a challenge

De Jongs one was more malicious in intent; the result in both cases was studs in the chest.
Nani's one did not look as bad because he started rolling in the ground.
Many refs would not have given a ref but stricter ones would.
