Being British, we can all agree that there's nowt wrong with a good, firm tackle. Y'know, just to let your opponent know your there.
Ideally though, you should try and win the ball - which isn't what happened here.
Facing arguably the world's finest striker in Robert Lewandowski, Switzerland's Fabian Schär nearly kicked the Bayern Munich man into next week.

With many fearing for Lewandowski's life, he did (eventually) get back to his feet. As for Schär, he escaped with a yellow - much to the belief of many viewers.

Just in case you've not had enough of arguing over things in recent weeks, let us know what you think of the tackle. Was it a red or did the sight of Lewandowski quadruple somersaulting his way through the Saint Etienne air make it look worse than it was?
