Not sure if anyone has seen it but in the last few minutes of the Celtic Benfica match last night Augustin Binya of Benfica received a straight red card for an absolute horror tackle on Celtic's Scott Brown - looked very deliberate as well, no idea how Brown's leg didn't break.

Anyone else see it?

 
Haven't seen it, as I make a point of avoiding watching the scum unless they're playing against the mighty Gers.

Anyway, I don't think somebody should be red-carded for trying to cripple a Septic player, he should be applauded!

Every tackle on a Celtic player should be awarded with a red card.

 
Shocking. Reminds me of Souness against Bucherest in 88!

Or, dare i say it, one of Essiens!

 
Disgusting. Deserves more than a 3 match ban, I hope Celtic appeal and get it. His bones must be strong as f*ck, HOW it didn't break...

 
It was horrific. Amazing the Celtic player wasn't seriously injured. I'll be interested to see if they give him an extended ban, given that the ref saw it and dealt with it in the correct manner, as UEFA normally shy away from anything too severe. Obviously they single Chelsea players out, but what's new in that?

 
Benfica probably does a Milan and appeal against the ban and the player gets a reduced sentence

Got to say I was dismayed to see this 'tackle'. Makes the one I did on a scouse fan totally insigificant

You don't mean the f**ker's still walking??

Jump on his head next time.

 
The guy who did the tackle apparently tried to find the "victim" immediately after the game but couldn't get to him and now he's gonna call him and appologize.

The tackle might have been awful but it's nice to see the guy atleast trying to say sorry.

Unlike some f*ckers named H*nt.

What a brutal tackle. It's lucky he can still walk after that

Hamman's horrific two footed one on a Norwich (?) player the season before was far worse than Essien's on him. Hypocritical twat.

 
Not to mention Gerrard's in the Merseyside derby

 
Hmmm... Essiens tackle is the only one they won't show.

And to be honest I've seen loads of worse tackles than Essiens. His might have been reckless but far from the worst tackle.
