Today’s Football 25/26 Season

[Cake]

70 minutes, 1 shot on target from each team

 

[Rita_Poon]

ref trying to get a game going. but both sides are hell bent on cancelling the other. negative, anti football minded, brutish stuff.

This is where back in the day a Drogba could be relied upon to light up a game with some muscly brilliance and rock a finish in from 40 yards.

Sheff Wednesday suffer their 7th successive defeat without scoring, Blackburn win drops WBA into the bottom three

 

[tsubaki]

thats a pen

 

[toffee82]

thats a pen

Lifts his leg up on purpose after the original challenge.

 

[johnjoeefc]

Im struggling with how both var and neville dont think thats a penalty. Hes clearly swiped his leg up and took him out?

 

[terryefc]

100% a pen. What are these VAR's doing to football

 

[Root66]

Won't see a clearer pen all season.

Shambles

this game is poo this game

long as areas win

it will be city - arse

 

[Rita_Poon]

Oh dear, I didn't see it as a penalty there. Where can he go after the contact with the ball. It's still a contact game.

The double body check on palmer before it though, that was a FK.

looked a double movement to me. deffo pen.

 

[HalfTimeSayers]

Thought the striker still had the ball so lifted trailing leg. Subtle at full speed, blatant on the replay, and his first thought was to look at the ref.

Rosenior being too clever for the quality of his team.

Great for Arsenal fans if they win trophies this year, but my god, they are a tough watch in most games. Effective, but incredibly characterless.

It simply is because he did not have to let his left leg do that. It wasnt a natural movement of the leg after the initial tackle
