No Lukaku. United have a chance.

Back him to come on and score to be honest. That heat and with United's mobile attack - which I expect to come more to the fore now Chelsea lead and drop deeper - may combine to give Lukaku the perfect environment to bulldoze a tired defence about 70 minutes in.
 
What a penalty.

And yes, that's a straight red all day long, but Oliver is a terrible referee so no surprise he bottled the big decision.
 
Pretty sure they changed the rules so you don’t get punished twice with a pen and then a red. Only a red if outside the box and through on goal.
Well the commentators aren't aware if there has been a change because they are saying he should be off.

Conte was going nuts.
 
We’ll be there next season, Tosun twatting an effort off the crossbar, rebounds to Niasse to head home the winner.
 
isnt there that 3 strike rule they made up,you cant be punished by pen,red card etc all same time,something like that

Yes, you can't be sent off for DOGSO if it's a genuine attempt to win the ball and a penalty is awarded.

Pretty obvious Jones was going for the ball and just missed, it wasn't a shirt pull or cynical trip.

But it appears even Chelsea players didn't seem to realise that, oir they were just trying it on in the 1% hope Oliver would wrongly change his mind.
