Anywhere else on the pitch and that's a foul - tackle from behind that makes contact with the player. Different rules apply re the colour of the card because it's in the area - he's just about to shoot - so the ref can give a red. Would have made more sense to give a yellow but that would have meant there would be no controversial decision for the media to latch onto, even though Spurs were getting a footballing lesson with 11 players on the pitch. To his credit, Sherwood recognises this.
