It was a clear foul.
If goaline technology would have been around in '05 I’d have wanted a penalty for Luis Garcia after being taken out by Cech.
Ederson always does that. Just because the ball has gone does not mean you can clatter into someone, this isn’t American football.
Flicking back for Dortmund v chavski
Generally it is one of familiarity. Goalies have routinely been allowed to be late as fuck and as long as the attacker was able to get their shot off they are not be penalized. There is no justifiction in the rules for it, other than just a collective understanding that we let goalies do it.
It’s largely indistinguishable though from what Silva just did on Saka to justifiably get his yellow card.
I understand how we see the pen decision differently and will prob be the debate post match. But nowhere akin to Pickfords assault.
it’s a foul in the box. Only reason it wouldn’t be a penalty is if it were judged as obstruction which is an indirect FK.
Definitely a penalty. Also loved seeing Brazil’s #2 attempting to shithouse Saka and ultimately shithousing himself.
KDB giving it to Arteta hahahahahaha
Smack him Kevin.
Arteta lol.
But for that terrible offside decision against Brentford, I think Arsenal would take a draw here. Getting to the other side of City’s best chance to close the gap with a 5 point gap would have been significant.
City with a few balls pumped up the pitch straight to the arse.
Yikes
Offside.
Penalty or offside
Haaland had hold of his shirt first - okay, not sure this is true now.
And he’s offside anyway
Offside
Just off by the scales along his back.
Hadn’t even realised Haaland was playing.
Ederson is a small penalty yeah.
There are different ways to “defend” and engage in that situation other than the way he did.
Nketiah got to the ball first, credit to Ederson for actually stopping well enough, but there was contact. Ideally, he could’ve done it differently.
AKanji for Mahrez
Not happy boy RIyad
Haaland LOL
