999 you miss, and cops ping you for reckless endangerment.

same action, different consequences.

its how shit works.
Great analogy that has zero to do with anything... The rules of sports in general and expectations of every day behavior are be different.

The only thing that matters in this are the rules of football. Son can only have been sent off for serious foul play. To get a red he has to use excessive force or endanger the attacker in the tackle.

The tackle in itself did not endanger Gomes, the speed the attacker was at and the approach of Aurier at an inopportune time were where the danger came from.

It was a reckless tackle every day of the week.
