Intent doesn't matter in this situation. If you hurt someone, it doesn't matter whether you intended to.

If you are intending to hurt someone, or if you are intended to go into a challenge that risks the safety of your opponent, but don't connect with the opponent then your intent becomes relevant.

Do they provide an explanation for this decision?
In my view, it's harsh. He slipped over. The challenge didn't look pretty, but he wasn't out of control, it's just one of those things that can occasionally happen, and this should have been either taken account of, or the law should be changed to take account of it.
If I was CH, I'd tell Murphy to take a week off in the sun and forget about it.

What a complete joke the FA are. How is Gabriel's ban for his sending off against Chelsea rescinded (when he clearly kicked out at Costa, whatever the cause of it) and Murphy is banned for three games for slipping over. How do these idiots run the game over here when so much money is at stake?
