Dude kicked Neuer’s knee. Only way a foot should ever be that high is if you’re running the 110 hurdles.
right before the Trossard goal. Not showing VAR for the Saka foul was bullshit. the intensity of a champions league match is a thousand times better than a premier league; despite all the brits wanting a league over continental trophy.
Gabriel clearly didn’t hear the whistle and there was absolutely no advantage gained nerd shit to want that given
That would be a lame fucking pen, but I think it's weird to just pretend it didn't happen and say it shouldn't be called.
Just watched the highlights of both games. Two incredible games and set ups for the second leg. The goals in City Madrid were insane. The Valverde goal was so pure. I feel like I need to watch the whole match.
Guys, when you get kicked that often you develop involuntary reflexes as a result. If you want to make fun of someone who has PTSD and Tourette like symptoms as a result, I’m not going to judge you for being boys with Gallant.
I mean, he picked the fucking ball up. Even the ref said it was a handball but he was too scared for the kid to call it.
Kane should have any seen red for the elbow, fine with both penalty no calls. no one wants letter of the law referring, the point is to prevent cheating and protect players. Some rules would be too difficult and/or inconsistent to subjectively enforce (offsides). Ref the game and the players not letter of the law. Arguing for a 0.8 xG penalty out of a 0.0 chance, you’d think it was bayerns first time the CL for 14 years…
I get this, especially as a Gooner. I just can't imagine how furious I'd be if it were my team, and I think y'all would be too.
I can see the case for no calling Saka so not getting a PK strictly on a technicality wouldn’t bother me at all. Not getting a pk when there might have been a scoring opportunity >>>> random infraction that could yield a goal
In the exact same situation as Gabriel? No. You make it sound like he was Lucy, snatching the ball away right as Charlie Brown Harry Kane was about to kick it.
