"Are you seeing this shit??"
- "Did you see that ludicrous display?"
  
  The problem with England is, they're just trying to walk on you.
Does the one on the ground really need to be smoking?
- Depending on how long the other lady has been standing on her, might as well take a quick smoke break.
  
  Time for a quick rendition of "I'm on smoko, leave me alone".
- Wouldn't you?
- Didn't realize you meant cigarettes at first
  
  Those cheeks though NGL

Bad foul. Red card definitely deserved.
- Not a foul. Play had stopped. This was violent conduct.
  
  Oh, if that's the case then an automatic 5 match ban imo. no place for it in the game
  
  That or foreplay. It's hard to read her expression.

  Video not available in my country in the original link and it seems Piped couldn’t get it to work either.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
This looks like as if she already knew this is going to be a bad day when she got up in the morning and now she has proof.
Yeah that seems like a pretty English thing to do.
I love the artists vision of post modern symbolism to depict aggressive colonialism... o wait this is from a dam football game. The world repeats itself.
DON'T TREAD ON ME
This could definitely be taken out of context NGL
- W-why are you step-stepping on me step-sis?!
At least try to not make it so obvious lol

This is a top tier comedic foul but nothing will ever top this big Sam situation.

English colonialism all over again.
- Good thing India has an awful football team.
The Irish: "First time?" /s
I dunno, in the full speed, it looks unintentional, like she was getting up and stumbled, and the foot went down. But in slow speed it looks intentional.
- I disagree, it looks fully intentional at full speed. There's no hint of a stumble, and there's no reason she should need to place her foot down there. She knows exactly where the other player is and chooses to stand / stomp on her.
  
  The officials all agree, it was a definite red card for violent conduct.
  
  Could be, I'm not claiming a magic eye here :)
  
  And I don't know enough about football to claim competence, much less expertise.
- It seems like an extra little retaliatory step after the other player held her back. Not sure how the holding back wasn't a foul too.
Ayoooo she racist and shit

- Timing. She was shrugging due to the outcome of the initial contact in which they both fell, not getting stepped on. She gave the proper "hey, ref, are you seeing this shit?" response after this.
