Re: El Ghazi

Tarks with a perfectly good challenge on Grealish.
Grealish goes down theatrically
Referee incorrectly gives free kick
Grealish then lays his hands on Tarks and pushes him over right in front of the referee.
Referee does not even speak to him let alone caution Grealish.
Poor all round
