It would be classed as violent conduct so a red. There isn't a specific law that covers hair pulling so it's a question of whether the ref / VAR deemed it as violent conduct which oddly they didn't. Another VAR cock up, can't damage the brand can we?

It’s an automatic yellow card in the women’s game.It would be classed as violent conduct so a red.

It doesn’t happen much in the men’s game, but it would be deemed the same offence.
It has nothing to do with VAR, however much you want it to be.

I’m sorry if you don’t like the rules of the game. If you want hair pulling to be deemed violent conduct, I suggest you set up a petition to show the FA and IFAB that the ruling is wrong.Fucking hell, man, are you a bot? It’s the most obvious foul going.

Check out the clips on YouTube of hair pulling. None were given as a stand alone red card.Where have you gotten that from?
Yanking someone to the ground by their hair is violent conduct, red card.
Never happened to Pep when he was a player.Check out the clips on YouTube of hair pulling. None were given as a stand alone red card.

Watched the highlights last night. Find this really strange. Pulling an opposition player to ground by any means, whether it be by shirt, shorts, arm or hair must be a foul in my opinion Whether it be deemed a red or yellow or just a foul. It’s unsportsmanlike by any definition.

Tell me which of the 14 yellow card offences it falls under.

Unsporting behaviour, in all likelihood.Tell me which of the 14 yellow card offences it falls under.
Potentially holding back a player too.
