when you saw it in slow motion it looked like both players were going forehead to forehead and as soon as there was any contact Aguero recoiled from the contact and went down like he had been shot
I think with regard to the tackle, Fellaini barely touched Aguero, but he did what all strikers do in that position, feel the slightest contact and go over to win the free kick.
As far as the head contact goes, there was minimal contact, and Aguero played the actor once again. But Fellaini definitely moved his forehead down towards Aguero in a significant motion, which the ref clocked, and I think rightfully sent him off.
Not a whole lot in it, but Fellaini had one of his red mist descending moments after fouling Aguero ten seconds earlier, getting booked, and then charging after him like a raging bull. It was only ever going to end in tears.
He was a pretty decent player at Everton, he's been a total failure at Man U, and a huge liability at times.
