ok, good, advantage... but the player fell a few steps after the push in the box... i see you point.. but your wrong. If a ref decides to call advantage then call it back because the advantage is lost the ball is placed where the foul was... which was out side of the box.

Red card, no doubt. "Denying an obvious goal-scoring opportunity." I'm a 15-year-old referee, it shouldn't be that difficult to memorize such a simple phrase!
