Clearly outside the box...

But nah, you're alright.

Chelsea get an undeserved red while Arsenal avoid a stonewall one.

Arsenal win, they were the better side so fair enough - but it helps when you've got 2 extra players...

Man of the match performance for Arsenal from Anthony Taylor though. Really kept them in control and made sure they won.

lucky lucky lucky arsenal. they always get more than their share of luck in the fa cup.
 
Not Anthony Taylor's finest hour that. Not Chelsea's either, Azpilicueta sent off, Pulisic injury, Pedro injury, bad day at the office.
 
I'm still waiting for a replay of Martinez handling the ball outside the box.

just seen it again. on the line, but tight as tight. keeper's body outside the area, but ball still on the edge of the area.

What's the definition in football laws of the game ? Not all of the keeper's body is outside the penalty area - Are the keeper's feet on the ground at the time the ref made his decision ? As tight as a nun's nasty.
 
If Arsenal won the middle aged fat ********* wearing Arsenal shirts walking into Hallgate Tavern.............in Cottingham, just before kick will be dancing all over Cott Green by now.

it was a bit on the highglights prog where they looked at it from a camera along the edge of the penalty box. it was where the ball and hands were. the rest of the keeper isn't relevant. it appeared to be okay so i left it at that.

on here from about 14min and from around 25min for the post-match discussion (there's a trailer on first if you're unlucky): https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m000lj91/the-fa-cup-201920-final-highlights
