Two extremely soft yellows....
How is it soft? Clear tactical foul on a player running through in a counter.

Another refereeing feck up, I can't remember it ever being as bad as this season, both in Germany and in England.
100% red card.
They are pulling at each other ffs. Look at Amiri´s grip on Reus´ hand and the way he goes down.
Dembele loves that fake shoot/cross. He seems to do it a few times per game.
It's a foul by Reus no less and it's the kind of foul you can't commit already on a yellow. Pretty straightforward decision. The first yellow was harsh though.
His first yellow was for sure not soft. If Süle would have made that foul on him Reus would have been out for months again.
And Dembele is a good playactor, isn't he?

Was as clear a second yellow as you can get. Not only did he pull his shirt he also got his legs. Tactical foul.
It was a scruff over the ball and a 50\50, I know the refs are not supposed to differ between the first yellow and the second yellow, but we all know they do (look at Costa being immune to second yellows in the PL), and to give a second yellow for that is just unnecessary.
Imo it was a deserved red, pretty stupid of Reus for that second foul.
This match is fun but pain to listen to. Hajto (ex-Schalke player) is the commentator for Polish Eurosport and stupid cnut is taking his bullshit talk to a next level, he's like a fecking patchwork made of Hargreaves, Owen, Souness and Savage, he's made up his mind that this referee is shit because he's young and he's having a dig at him every time.

Reus's first yellow was so fecking harsh, tbf.
Don't agree. Amiri pulls just as much at Reus' shirt. Very harsh decision.
Yes, while falling down after being pulled by Amiri, who by the way initates the pull and shove.
I actually think you can give this. The problem is that it was very early in the game and Hoffenheim commited half a dozen similar offenses afterwards without being punished. That is my biggest beef with ref here. It is so fecking inconsistent. If you go a certain line of refereeing, stick with it!
Just saw the replay, no way in hell that is a second yellow and a red. That shit would even be considered soft in El Classico.
Not sure the second is a yellow after the replay. The other guy is pulling his shirt although really stupid by Reus to put his arms around him like that
I think Hoffenheim players was the first to foul Reus by pulling his shirt.
Yeah seems like Bayern fans trying to rile up Dortmund fans. Not a red for Reus and Dembele playaciting? They can´t stop him without fouling. Jealously detected as Bayern fans realize how dire their wings are, when Robbery are done?
Why? There's Dembele after all.
Somewhere in München Rolex-Kalle is getting his sly comments and cheque book ready.
Yeah, no sorry. Amiri holds out his arm to keep Reus at a distance and then grips Reus´ sleeve before Reus makes any contact at all. I would love to for someone to explain me how Reus holding was more offensive than Amiri´s. It would have to be that way to be ruled as defensive foul.
So Dortmund could potentially be in seventh place by the end of the weekend, but I bet Tuchel still gets off lightly....
Can clearly see why a second yellow was given, stupid from Reus even if he tried to pull out at the last minute.

FFS Dembele and Auba 
Aubameyang, what a finish!
Hoffenheim hit the post, then Auba equalizes on counter! What a moment!
Dembele sure has an eye for a pass. Great player.
great match. Dembele and Auba are amazing
Dortmund still alive and kicking.
We should go all out for Dembele tbh.
Auba with the chance to score the 3-2. Dembele is fecking immense.
Dembele seriously has BPITW potential, I can't think of any attacking talent near his level.
He's breaking up Hoffenheim's counter by wrestling Amiri off the ball.
Yes, there's some mutual pulling and holding going on which is normal in such duels, but then Reus runs into Amiri. It's a foul, any defender on a yellow would be clever enough not to make it, Reus wasn't.
If this happened to a BVB attack you'd all be clamoring 'tactical foul'.

Dembele is sensational. Going to be the worlds best right winger for sure. Cracking game this
Where is slig these days?
All the best teams would be insane not to go all out for this guy
The Targaryan transfer pushed him over the edge, and he finally plummeted into full insanity like we all knew he would sooner or later.
While I'm composing unneccessary posts, there's some goal scoring going on ffs
Or worlds best left winger, or worlds best central AM. Doesn't matter with the bloke.
End-to-end game. You can't take a breath. Hoffenheim very dangerous now.
Almost an own goal for Dortmund. Guess who created it
