I’ve seen both challenges thanks.

One is an aerial challenge that comes down on the back of the lads leg accidentally.

The other is lunging studs up challenge for the ball.

I don't give a shit what ESPN says they're totally different.

Can someone stop handing out penalties to France?

Stay on your feet. Especially from that angle.
