I don't think the ref was 100% sure it was a red, he clearly saw the challenge and could have prevented players surrounding him by producing the card sooner.
As it was, he chose to give himself time to think indicating there was some doubt in his mind, it also looked as if he sought advice from the 4th official?
No doubt the ref will have a different version of events and the panel will side with him.
