Been a good start. Shame that free kick didn't go in, was beautifully worked. Pen is one of them that's technically a pen, but how many times do you see it in a game. Stupid defending really as run the risk
That is not a penalty. Standard jostling for position. Clark starts to lose his balance and then gets bundled to the deck
Makes up for the Lino somehow giving a goal kick in first 30 seconds when your guy kicked it out right in front of him
Clark a moron. No excuses for that in front of the ref. Gave him an easy decision to make. Why? Rafa and his line up is a bit left field and I thought but gotta give it a chance I suppose. Gouffran is in no way at a striker though. Perhaps he thought Mitro might not have temperament for big occasion?
What? Clark had his hands all over him. Wasn't watching the ball. Pure ****e from him and though soft it still was a penalty
It's one where if it goes for you, you say it's a pen. If it goes against you you're annoyed and say it's soft/not a pen. Problem ref has given himself is he now has to be consistent. Will he give everything like that as a pen?
To be fair their player wasn't watching the ball either. He was spinning around. And be even more fair, he was watching it a bit and if he had been watching it entirely we would be criticising him for ball watching and losing his man.
