Which I actually think was critical in the decision. Pedro was smashed into by Lewis Cook, who was the subject of Baleba's late challenge, even if there was virtually no contact. I reckon Atwell reckoned it was a deliberate retribution challenge from Baleba and acted accordingly.

Could be, I took a stab at it being Cook :p It was the same guy in both challenges anyway

Wasn't the same player. It was Lewis Cook (no 4) who was involved in the challenge with Joao Pedro. It was Kerkez (no 3) who was involved in the challenge with Baleba.

Dembele for PSG has just got a very similar 2nd yellow to Baleba. Commentators moaning vociferously about it being a poor decision to give the 2nd yellow - when he might not have touched him.
