       One of those games where opinions of the referee's performance
       will vary significantly.
       If UEFA want minimal use of cards particularly in the early
       stages as long as the referee doesn't lose control, then I guess
       they will be satisfied with the overall performance of Dias.
       For some of us though, it's hard to understand how Carvajal,
       Silva in the first half, and probably Rodri didn't get YCs. I
       felt he either stretched leniency to the limit or simply missed
       or misread some challenges.
       There were times when the game threatened to boil over and yet
       Dias didn't lose control.  To what extent that was due to his
       game management or to the restraint of most of the players, or a
       combination of both, is hard to tell.  It was certainly a
       visible strong warning he gave to Carvajal and Grealish after
       their second altercation, not having done so after the shove
       into the boards and the reaction.
       
       I've not seen a lot of that referee so I don't know if that is
       his normal approach to what was a very high profile game.  I'm
       in the betwixt and between camp frankly.  A curates's egg
       performance?  Improved after half time?  Overall, I don't think
       it was nearly as bad as some have stated, but I'm not sure I
       would class it as good.  But probably ok from a UEFA
       perspective.

       Uncomfortable with the referee's performance but I come from the
       viewpoint that you stamp on bad fouls and continue to do so in
       the hope that player's behaviour improves. The game appears to
       have changed, there is a greater emphasis on managing a
       situation, to keep 11 v 11. Some of the spirefullness, pettiness
       and exagaration in the modern game is alienating people like me
       but it is becoming the norm and referees are mandated to ignore
       it by FIFA. So Soares did what he had to do and a fair result
       ensued following 2 great strikes.
       However I will never get used to boots down the back of
       someone's heel or a violent charge into touch, I.e. let the
       player you are there sort of thing.

       What are people’s views in general about shoving into the
       hoardings incidents ? I feel it’s an often unnecessary action
       and potentially dangerous (maybe less so at top level stadia)
       but it seems to be accepted as part of the game.

       I can never accept pushing into hoardings but increasingly
       people say it is part of the excitement and it is what
       spectators love too see. IMHO it is not a Roman amphitheatre
       involving gladiators and slaves fighting but it is gladiatorial
       in the sense of encouraging aggression and violence. God knows
       there is enough in society and if players cannot control
       themselves, or indeed managers, what hope is there?
       Someone will get hurt and I dislike giving cards out based on
       the outcome or seriousness of the injury (ignoring play
       acting!). Cards should be given based on action of player doing
       the pushing.
       Just my opinion of course.

       Totally unnecessary and very dangerous, in my view. You only
       have to look at the well documented case of Bath City's Alex
       Fletcher who was in a coma and had to have brain surgery
       following a collision with advert hoardings, although he wasn't
       pushed (it was his own momentum that caused his unfortunate but
       devastating collision). Players at all levels would do well to
       think of the potential consequences of any such actions.

       Having been overlooked as one of UEFA’s on on-field referees at
       the recent World Cup I was a little surprised to see Dias being
       appointed to such a high profile game (yes I know he’s
       experienced, Elite etc).

       You clicked bad spelling on his post, I assume that is what he
       means.

       The obvious translation, counting the stars, would be "push"
       though why that should not be used in its native form just adds
       to the mystery.  Ref Fan prefers the synonym "shove" and my BLFG
       might have used "dunt".
       I doubt whether that has taken us much further but your question
       hasn't been ignored!
