It's a red because it's interpreted as intentional hand ball in a case where the ball is clearly going on. Seems harsh but I think it's a red by the rule book

so how is that different from before the rule change then. could also be yellow or red before...

De Jong was pretty amazing. Don't remember an error from him and was always positive and sharp with his passes.

I think the difference is between a clear goal scoring chance vs a ball that's basiczlly already in if not for the hand.
