It was the correct call.

The rules of the game clearly state, and I quoteL

"Careless Reckless, Using Excessive Force

Using Excessive Force means that the player has far exceeded the necessary use of foce and is in danger of injuring his opponent.

A player who used excessive force shall be sent off"

I've seen yellows for high boots that don't even make contact with a player.  It is wel known in football that you don't attempt to take possession within arms length of an opponent with high cleats or cleats exposed.

Nani came in high with his boot straight into Arbaloa's chest. He missed the ball, made no contact with it and could have seriously injured his opponent.  We wouldn't be having this debate if he broke Arbaloa's ribs.

The referee interpreted the rule correctly.  That type of foul doesn't call for a yellow.  It calls for a straight red.  Ibrahimovic's foul for stomping on his opponent's foot earned him a direct red which was less excessive than this. 

Bottom line is no matter how you cut it, the referee interpreted the rule correctly. There was physical contact by means of cleats into the chest without any ball contact. It was excessive and reckless and as per the rule, is a direct red.

The red card didn't give Real the match.  Chelsea was down to 10 men last year and they even scored an equalizer (on aggregate) and still advanced.

All the analysts are saying that it was a yellow at best, so I have to side with them. The Refs are told to try and keep the matches 11 on 11 in deciding games as long as possible, also check this refs previous matches involving English teams where he has a history of sending English players off??? This ref I will predict wont be seen again in CL this year for sure.

The analysts are referencing the rule book my friend.

Rule 12.64 .. .direct red card offence.  No question about it. Nani came in high with his boot in a reckless manner, an offence punishable by a direct red.

Fever........Are u serious ?

He was looking back at the ball as it was played into him. He was attempting to control the ball. There was no ill intent, and most definately no excessive force. I agree with the other 99.9 percent who watched the game, it was a horrendous call that decided a very important game. I am not a fan of either team, so i have no bias here. Plain and simple.......Man Utd were robbed by an incompetant referee.

United Robbed!!!!

Lmao at Fever, dude how long have you been watching soccer? Started this year? No idea at all, you think your smart, but you have no clue at all, the funniest thing is that you really believe that your the only one right. The truth has no sides, we all know it helped your over bet. Otherwise your bet would be in serious trouble. Just say I'm defending the referee because he helped my bet and/or I am a Real Madrid fan or Man Utd hater

When Man UTD is 1-0 up, After red card, I wanted to hedge my risk by betting Real over 1.5 goals, and real draw no bet. My initial bet was Man UTd 0.5 handicap. 
Unfortunately, From Live bet bet365 web site started maintenance, they usually do maintenance 5 am when there is no games, they did this intentionally, if they didn't close web site they would have lost millions of dollars. 
Do you guys agree bookies can do maintenance whenever they want? I see this all the time, especially at corners bets, last 10 minutes at some games they suspendid this option. As you see Bookies always against us...

Fever reckless challenge is punishable via a yellow card. Violent conduct or excessive force is punishable via red card. Be very specific how you word it.
