I thought violent conduct was a red card or nothing. So how can the referee give a yellow for that? Also i thought VAR checks couldn’t recommend a yellow so what was the process?

But then again, the referees make it up as they go along, against Liverpool, Mane elbowed Tieney in the face but they didnt even bother reviewing it.
