It wouldn’t be fair to nullify the red card,don’t know what it was for but if it was ,eg for violent conduct ( perhaps kicking the ref ) player shouldn’t be allowed to get off free because a game is abandoned.

I’ve often thought, if it is a chip shot FG, why they don’t get the long snapper up. For a few extra yards it negates the block.

My only disappointment was the second yellow. Most refs would have just given the FK against a player on a yellow already.
A) Wirtz had played the ball to Hartman.
B) It was more of a trip than an ankle assault
The downside is he was off his feet.
