Went yard onto the pitch ..stepped back off quickly according to the club (as per TS saying so)…shown red ….madness…….i look forward to seeing many managers being shown red this seasonThe videos show Espirito Santo going mental at the 4th official, but Hurzeler seemed to do eff all. Why was he red carded?
I think he had a foot on the pitch and one off when speaking to Dunk after the red card for Gibbs-White. Can Fab contest the red card?Went yard onto the pitch ..stepped back off quickly apparently…shown red ….madness
Just going by TS who repeated what the club had said….either way it’s ridiculousI think he had a foot on the pitch and one off when speaking to Dunk after the red card for Gibbs-White.

Was going to make the same point.Ridiculous when you consider Lego-heads behaviour, he practically runs up and down the touchline
Yep, surely it's a yellow not a red.Was going to make the same point.
Surely if he had encroached slightly on to the pitch when the ball was out of play, a booking would have been fair. To send him off is ludicrous.
Having 'words' with an opponent is a red card offence? Happens all the time between players with no consequences.I think he had words with Gibbs White, and I don't think he was asking after his family. As the ref showed Fabian the red card Gibbs White pushed passed him and seemed to gesture for our manager to follow him down the tunnel so they could continue the discussion.
The TV commentators (who have the audio feed with the VAR) stated Huerzeler was sent off for encroaching on the pitch.The Athletic summary has both managers sent off for persistent foul and abusive language
