This VAR will be good. I thought it was a pen but then he touched it twice.

 

Walcott hits the post
Literally

 

No, Mertesacker and Elneny saw it, hence raising it with the ref. Agree it's a tough call to make. But they got it wrong.

 

Walcott

 

Sounds like a cracking cup tie.

 

Oh well

 

Yeah, don't think it would have affected the outcome of the game.

 

Well played Forest

Don't have any complaints about that, they fully deserved their win.

 

I don’t think he touched it twice at all, he just slipped. I guess the ref has no chance of after replays it’s inconclusive

 

Would it have been a retake though?

 

He did touch it twice, as the replay showed.

 

Yep I think it's a retake if that's the case ?

 

If you’re not a gooner, yep!..

 

Not sure it is mate tbh. I stand to be corrected though

 

Yeah likewise. I thought that was the rule, but happy to be corrected.

 

Think it’s a free kick to the other side.

 

Yeah I’m fairly certain that’s how it works

 

To be fair mate I enjoyed it, even though we lost. It was a cracking game. Thought Forest did really well, so sometimes you just have to take it on the chin and congratulate the opposition.

 

Yep, you're right. So it should have been a free kick to us. But we still would have lost anyway

 

I think the law says that once you’ve touched it you can’t touch it again until another player does.
