Crystal Palace's Ruesha Littlejohn 'wrestles' Leicester City's Hannah Cain to ground in League Cup

OMG, what was she thinking? That tackle was so reckless! I get it, she meant no harm but the way she took down Cain was like something out of a bad movie . Refs need to keep an eye on that one because if it happened in a real game, yellow card is a must . Players need to be taught better tackling techniques and how to stay calm under pressure. I'm still shook by what I saw , hope Cain didn't hurt herself too much .

I mean come on, can't they just keep the drama to themselves? First off, Crystal Palace's midfield is already a mess and now we got this Ruesha Littlejohn drama? It's like she was trying to make a statement or something. I'm not saying it was intentional but that reckless tackle was sloppy at best.

And what really grinds my gears is the whole yellow card thing. If they're gonna keep making these calls, then maybe they should be more consistent with them. It's all about sending the right message here. I mean Cain got back up and played on, no big deal... but still.
