Today’s Football 2019/20 Season

No sympathy for Wolves there. Their own fault.

It’s nice to see that being enforced. We’ve had decades of dodgy encroached penalties in the league

How many penalties would Raheem have to take to actually score one? I feel like double digits.

Mad that lol

VAR correct to award the penalty (Michael Keane vs Burnley precedent).

VAR right to give re-take.

Can't blame the referee for too much really, the penalty was very hard to award, however I think if he knows the rules as he should then he can, along with the linesman, figure out that the player who encroached benefited by being able to clear the ball, hence re-take.

On the second penalty I can confirm that the City players shoulder was in the area before the kick was taken.

Therefore, it should have been retaken. That it wasn't just confirms that VAR only favours the big teams.

Imagine saving two pens in a minute and still conceding

They said the Keane one was wrong though subsequently.

VAR has been interesting to say the least but it was 100% correct here. Not sure why this one had people upset.

lol.. very true. All very confusing and wrong.

 

[TheBigIguana]

I'm in favor of the rule being changed to make the penalty a one off shot. Either score or it is a goal kick. I don't like Sterling being able to tap in his miss.

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

Also bizarre that Sterling not KDB took the pen(s). KDB the obvious choice.

 

[blue to the bone]

If sterling had scored the first one would it have been retaken. City player was in the box before coady

 

[Ring master]

Everton were that winning team v Blackburn in 2006 if i am right,3rd pick Turner sent off on debut,with Ruddy i think who was 4th pick at the time also making his debut but not sure

 

[ToffeeTim]

Another object thrown on the pitch.

Someone has to find these weirdos chucking stuff and get them out of football grounds. It's a major problem.
