True, he was trying to buy a foul, but that doesn't mean it wasn't a foul ffs. The defender threw his leg out and caught him I don't know what video some people are watching, but if that's not a free kick they need to re-write the ****ing rules. This is on par with when Jota was denied a pen a few seasons back at Spurs because he had the temerity to slow down to take a shot. It was a blatant foul, but nothing more or nothing less. My point is that Oliver was hapless for both sides. That ludicrous, overblown, undeserved reputation he has is due to be blown to smithereens. Overdue, in fact.
more sinned against than sinning. Tom daley loves a dive but is much loved. In the grand schem of things the obession with a crock's diving abiliy is interesting.
Five fouls given for no contact - but Salah is scythed down outside the box 15 yards away from the gormless referee and he gives nothing. He was (as always) ****ing hideous.
Any side gets free kicks missed.. You're just not used to anything bad ever happening and don't handle it well. Everton get a point, so you go combing through every decision digging out the bad bits and ignore everything that goes your way.
