yeah, Howard Webb has said that he didnt have the best angle on that call, but in retrospect, he should have sent him off...

"The trouble in the actual game was that I had a poor view of that particular incident. I was looking through the back of Alonso and though I could see the foot was high, I could not be certain of the extent of the contact. It wasn't that I didn't want to send anyone off because it was a World Cup final, though I was mindful of the fact that the game was the pinnacle of the players' careers as well as of mine. I just wasn't prepared to take a guess 25 minutes into the game

excessive and dangerous yes, but I don't feel that it was malicious.
