I'm confused. Should it have been a straight red for Sagna then?

Was it a clear goalscoring opportunity?

That cvnt Atkinson completely blew that call.

About time he did something for us as well.

the ball was put through to him.

Nice of MOTD to miss out the tackle from behind on Giroud when Jenkison put a low cross into the penalty box from the right - in the 2nd half - not too long before the Altadore v Sagna incident.
