Brighton 0-0 Everton

The referee goes to the screen. Just behind it two Brighton fans wave a fiver at him trying to influence his call.

WOW, that red card for Arsenal was a terrible decision. This is one the fans will be justified in feeling hard done by. It was a textbook tactical foul on the edge of the opposition box to stop a break away, but oliver has given it a straight red for something that was no more than a trip.

Are the commentators saying ā€˜the gameā€™s goneā€™, or are they leaving that for the half time crew

Oohh, there is a new VAR angle that makes it look more legit. He actually came down on the standing leg first before he clipped the trailing leg.

Just watching it now, donā€™t see that yet. So far I can see why the Arsenal fans are in shock

Studs right into the base of the leg where it meets the foot after raking the instep - a red alright, but usually the trip is called for a yellow

Supporting Arsenal isnā€™t shocking enough? :thinking:

Yeah, first few angles it looked like a bog standard ankle clip. There was one angle they showed from the direction of the Arsenal end though that showed the first contact was above the ankle on the standing leg in a stamping down motion. Not malicious, very clearly just tried to clip him and take the yellow, but itā€™s a justifiable decision.

As a Liverpool fan that wasnā€™t a red card for Arsenal. However, they nearly got carried to a title by referees last year so maybe it does balance itself out.

Its a clear red card all day long.

That looks incredibly harsh but because itā€™s for Arsenal Iā€™ll allow it.

Did Oliver give a red onfield because without the slow motion replays, it just looks like a cynical trip.

Studs above the ankle will punch that ticket, just usually not seen

My favorite part is that Oliver gave it hahahaha

Those deluded fucks are obsessed with his record against arsenal

Yeah, he went to the red right away. He had a good angle on the raking action

I still take a draw. Wouldnā€™t surprise me if Arsenal still win this.

This really is the perfect red card. It was a good spot from the ref and so itā€™s understandable the players and match going fans will feel they have been screwed. But it was legit. But because of their persecution complex none of them will be able to reflect on this and accept it, and the angst will continue to burn
