Bruno G should have been sent off.

I have seen the push-to-the-back and other types of interference not to be deemed to be fouls. Really iffy stuff, but it happens.

The offside decision was also quite iffy. I don't think they 1) attempted to determine whether the ball was played forwards or backwards, and 2) in case forwards, any attempt to draw the lines.

Otoh, I've heard that Havertz should also have been sent off. It's all just madhouse. Though Newcastle really seems to have taken the cake when it comes to really unlikeable players. Eddie Howe learned well when he observed Simeone at work...
