I say poor him because on principal, he should not have been sent off, not to mention the manager could have rested him for the last match and unless the rules have changed, the slate would have been wiped clean for the knockout stages.

Well, the rules HAVE been changed, bookings wipe clean after QF, not knockout stages, that's why I'm saying he should be thankful he was sent off. That way, he won't miss the crucial match in QF against Holland if he's booked against Spain/Swiss/Chile
