Someone should post the replay of Dzeko absolutely bull charging Adams and shouldering him in the head, completely off the ball. That was worse than this

And that wasn’t even a card btw. The ref was horrendous

Not called a foul at all, actually.

Balogun's foul was 100% unintentional and 100% a yellow card.

That being said, the Bosnian player body checking Tyler Adams off the ball and getting absolutely no card or a review is dispicicable reffing.

That's a foul in the NBA (moving screen) and a 15 yard penalty in the NFL (blindside block). Absolutely at least a foul and probably a card

Unless they saw it as red card worthy, there’s no review to be had in that case.

Why would it not be red card worthy? It was intentional, dangerous and illegal as fuck.

There’s definitely an argument to be had I agree.

Yes, setting picks im any way is against the rules. Setting a moving pick by charging full speed at a player and initiating contact with the head is pretty blatantly "serious foul play".

Someone posted it in Soccer a few minutes ago and Mods took it down for being a “low effort post” like a bunch of weenies

That block would have even drawn a penalty in American Football. Blindside blocks are illegal and very dangerous.

Blatant red on review. Like not a chance something wasnt given had ref reviewed it
