Speed of the game blowout scores

Tactically it seems easier to defend a man down in football than it does in rugby league. You can remove a striker and still keep a relatively compressed shape to stop teams getting close to that 8 yards by 8 ft thing we call a goal.

Having said that I would be a big advocate for sin bins to be introduced into football.

It’s also rare that a team red carded does come out on top as well.
 
I’ll just add that I’ve always been 100% anti replacing a sent off player in league. It’s always been possible to win with 12 men imo. But under the current interpretations, I really struggle to see how a team could manage it.

What if a team was up by 40 and the send off happens in the last couple of minutes?
