My feeling at the time exactly ( and my feelings about him as a player are not exactly secret), but now having seen the recording, I think he did over react, but not as badly as i thouight at the time and there was clear contact with his face. And his elbow also made contact, which I didnt see when there. But the whole thing could have been handled with more sensitivity by the ref. And with more intelligence by the players concerned in the first place.
