It’s a red all day every day ffs. Maeda is through and he fouls him.

But the ref has seen it as he's given a foul and cautioned him. There is no doubt about what he has seen and/or what he's given a foul for. It's hard then to make a case that he made a "clear and obvious error" with regards to denial of a clear goalscoring opportunity.

More yellow than red. Nothing clear and obvious that warranted a VAR review. 

Exactly.

And this is the problem. Referees are actively looking for reasons to send players off rather than using common sense to keep 11 v 11.

The clear and obvious error is that is was a clear goalscoring opportunity, denied because Maeda was fouled and the referee's initial decision was wrong.

Just to be really clear....

Only an outright fucking IDIOT thinks VAR has improved football. 

An absolute game wrecking decision, dealt with by the referee in a way no one could really argue with... Taken on by VAR and turned to a red despite the clearly subjective nature of the call. 

Celtic fans lining up to display their 12 year old laddie logic is no surprise either.

There's literally another Hearts player right next to him, in most cases I'd have this down as a wind up attempt but OF fans are genuinely too thick to make it easy to know

He's not right next to him when the foul is made, he's well behind. But with the ball in the air, he possibly has time to catch up. Harsh red.

Irony alert.
