I'm sorry guys but it wasn't half as harsh to send Van Persie off as people are making it out to be. He got a yellow for pushing Alves in the face which on another day would have been a straight red, he also ran his studs down Messi's leg which was a blatent yellow but even forgetting that he still clearly heard the whistle saw the flag and still kicked the ball away, he got what he deseverd for acting like a petulant child.
