I’m surprised it wasn’t a red for that. Surely he was last man?

I think the rules have changed a bit. Denying a clear goal scoring opportunity in the box = penalty + yellow card. Denying a clear goal scoring opportunity outside the box = free-kick + red card.

If it was judged to be a legitimate attempt to win the ball then no red. Otherwise you have the triple punishment of red card, suspension and penalty. A little silly there where comitting the foul was worth it even for a red as it stopped a tap-in and then the pen was missed. Zanka lucky the ref decided he was going for the ball, not what I think.
