I don't think you quite read my posts. I've made it clear I'm not defending him, I think it's stupid and I think he should get a ban, just as the perpetrators of any foul should get a ban. However, I also think the witch hunt is ridiculous, as are "BAN HIM FOR LIFE!" calls, especially because there are more violent and dangerous incidents that occur without anyone so much as batting an eyelid.

Chiellini is fine, the game carried on as normal, the world did not end. We should just laugh, call him an idiot and move on instead of acting like this is anything remotely important or serious.
