If Salad leaves this game with a damaged shoulder like in 2018 we can chalk this season up as a win imo

The wine stays shut in my house until the 90+ 7 are up

Trent “the best defender to ever have lived” not doing the basic defending, you love to see it.

 

[DanEFC92]

I’d support any English team in Europe other than the RS. What’s your issue with Spurs?

Sod that. I want all English clubs to fail.

 

[RomanReigns]

Salah back to his diving ways when his team are losing

 

[Alan0401]

Just run down the clock now...

 

[Bohemian Toffee]

Sod that. I want all English clubs to fail.

Especially Everton

 

[helpimonfire]

Dodgy this game now .. My clock is not moving

 

[RomanReigns]

Hope courtois was watching Pickford timrnwasting tactics

 

[Seamus Colemole]

This argument makes no sense

How can diving into a tackle not be a deliberate attempt to play the ball.

If he wasnt going for the ball then what was he doing

Also, did the RM player not play the ball backwards too...?

I think, emphasis on think that if Fabinho had won the ball from the Madrid player and it went to Benzema it would have been deemed a deliberate play and therefor a goal.

But it's the deflection of a bouncing ball that hits his knee and goes to Benzema that isn't deemed deliberate.

Obviously IFAB love ambiguity in the wording of the laws and this is no different, all depends on how you define deliberately played.

But knowing how they define it and how its been seen to be defined by refs in previous games suggest that it's the right decision in law.

Courtois is a magnificent keeper ain't he? I've really warmed to Pickford this season, but he's a level above.

Just run down the clock now...

Nah madrid have few more in them. They get better as a game goes on

 

[ToffeeDan]

My Benzema 2-0 bet.. grrrrr. At least I did both first or last so not gone yet

 

[Sadken]

Shouldnt matter what Fabinho was doing it came off Konate initially

Who intentionally passes to the opposition???
