This Man United iteration is football’s psychic vampire - they suck the life out of the game and before you know it, you’ve conceded to them and no one knows how. It goes back well before Amorim’s tenure.
Actually just looked we won 2 after it so wasn’t that.
This is pretty much spot on.
He looks like the illegitimate love child of Elon Musk and Donkey from Shrek there.
I wish the very worst on him after that celebration.
We had a player on our side that day who had a massive strop on and didn’t want to do his job. We played with 10 men. That’s the brutal truth.
This is absolutely hilarious
Official guidance from the PL on high foot challenges…but this was not considered a foul during the match.
Between that penalty and Odegaard playing basketball, we got screwed big time. I wonder if the correct outcome would have led the lads to the title (provided both penalties were scored). And whoever did this is either a Liverpool fan with a sense for gallows humour, or a massive troll.
Or some innocent design person who barely knows the game and just went looking in their image files for some really graphic example of an obvious high boot challenge. I mean, what context could there be that would make that not a foul?
I would make the same comment as you about the dangerous high kick and shove on Wataru Endo on Saturday I could not understand how that was not a straight red?
Very simply - no studs. If you watch the replay, he knows he has fucked up and while in the air does what he can to minimize the contact, turning his boot downward. Could still easily have earned a red, but a polar opposite from Doku there. I made the comment elsewhere that it is an interesting comparison to the red that the Gunners have their knickers in a twist about. The contact on Endo looked like a straight red at first glance, but when you look at the contact you can see mitigation. The Arsenal red looked liked not much more than the ‘professional foul’ yellow at first glance, but the raking stamp of the studs into the top of the ankle to bring him down earned him the red.
“They’ve both gone in high”.
They have got to be trolling at this point.
Hmmmm
Well that wasn’t a deemed even a foul was it?
