    "articleBody": "Phil Foden was dismissed in a recent derby match, sparking debate about whether the red card was justified. An expert correspondent commented on the incident, highlighting the controversy surrounding the decision.\n\nThe guidance on such fouls changed some years ago to take into account the nature of contact involved. The correspondent noted that it appeared there was little to no contact from Fernandes, and if any, it was limited force. The act committed by Foden would typically be seen as a yellow card offence, which the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) can review.\n\nThis has led to questions about whether the dismissal was appropriate, with experts suggesting the decision may have been harsh given the circumstances of the challenge.\nयह भी पढ़ें\nMan United score four goals against Sabah in Champions League return\nLiverpool come from behind to beat Atletico Madrid\nPatrick Mahomes shows fierce side in comeback video\nKylian Mbappe Eyes First Ballon d'Or After Strong Season",
