No, see above, serious foul play (what you described) or violent conduct are never exempt.So if (without already having a yellow) he'd gone in over the top, an out-and-out leg-breaker, a red card any hour of the day, it would just have been a penalty, but no red card because of double jeopardy ..............but 'just' a fairly innocuous foul, and it's a second yellow and a red and a penalty?
Sounds like the double jeopardy thing hasn't been thought through very well!
