There has to be some real consequence for a foul that deliberate, even if it was perhaps a legitimate response to getting pounded by a Wales defender a few minutes after one of the best goals of his career.
That's what red cards are for.

I'm not a fan of the accumulted yellows rule--I'd eliminate it altogether. As it is, it creates too much caprice as to when the ultimate effects of a yellow card are felt.
