Studs up, stretched leg lunge at knee height? These are almost always reds, no?
I would say so to ensure these kinds of tackles are prevented in the future. this one looked as in control as one can be, tried tripping him higher up to ensure he catches him but could also go very very wrong at that speed and force.
Also since most people here love the PL, Allan did a similar tackle to Saint-Maximan 2-3 years ago, the latter sprinting and trying to jump over the challenge and Allan tripped him high up with his legs extended and got a red.
