Another person tweeted:“Andreas Ferreira, this is a bloody situation. Shame on him.”
A third person said: “Shame on Pereira for booking Van Dijk. Kut was passionate about it.A fourth outraged: “Shame on you Coot Van Dijk. To make matters worse, he thought it was yellow. Fifth: “It’s no worse than Van Dijk, it’s actually yellow.” My name is David Coote and I am completely useless.
Another said: “Pereira should be automatically suspended for this.” The camera exists to show the diver and portray the actors. If you ban a game, it will stop in no time. He couldn’t even touch the right side of his head when VVD Palmer dropped him. Shame”.
