Vertonghen stuck his head in just as much though.

Vert basically moved towards him with the intention of going down, he braced and put his shoulder into the player and Vert's own head was moving towards the player. I think Vert deliberately went at the player looking to go down. The guy maybe just moved his head a bit at Vert but the instigator was clearly Vert, considering his reaction, pathetic, and that he tried to make it happen I'm not really sure what the fair outcome was.

Would like to see another replay to see how much the guy pushed his head at Vert, but I wouldn't have been sad to see both get a red maybe. Like I said before though, he had been winding Vert up in this game himself and others were diving and trying to get Vert cards.

Yeah, red for both would have been fair imho. I am still not quite sure how Soldado never got sent off first half though, not that it matters. It is Soldado after all :p
 
It's weird seeing two strikers on the same team having completely contrasting fortunes. Usually if the team's scoring, both strikers are happy, but Soldado looks lost!
