Plenty of bile about the penalty from Steve Tongue in the Independent. "From a draw that would have counted as a moral victory, Liverpool’s 10 men lost the moral high ground and gained a win in the most dubious of circumstances. Substitute Christian Benteke, receiving the merest of touches in the last minute of added time from Damien Delaney’s knee – not a trip, as required by the laws of the game – went to ground and then stood up to roll in the penalty awarded by a furiously flagging assistant referee.

well as everyone argues there was contact so was a pen, suppose we have to call it a pen. for those of us who have played the game we know its bollocks that it should be a pen, but they created these silly rules, so has to be same rule for everyone. also it depends on what side of the pen you are calling it from as well which is funny.
Look at the mods trying to be diplomatic... Mito and Enricky both going no pen and gerrez arguing the same... Shocking. None of them have a backbone. Thats why im #modofthepeople
that's the point i was making lol, other way round (ie young) the cock would be arguing contact so def pen. we have had that argument used against us, contact made so def pen, now because we have benefited from it suddenly its a no pen!
It's really funny how Pardew and Delaney have both referred to the timing of the penalty, practically saying you can't give the penalty in the last seconds of the game. Winning the way we did was so much more amusing than 2-0. Pardew has gone full ******.
Thought the game was heading for a draw and was looking for the remote at 93 minutes. Couldn't find the remote then our dinosaur striker fell over. Rest is history. Thank you sofa for swallowing the remote. Just goes to show anything is possible
What I find amusing is that it was a blatant dive by Benteke and Liverpool supporters are trying to whitewash it by having a poll....come on be honest for once and stop making yourself look foolish and supporting a player who was obviously cheating! Nothing is going to happen you have the points just do not lie to yourself about it.
nope we are using the same logic thats used against us in contact was made so def pen. we all know its exaggerated contact and a form of cheating, but ALL players do it.
Funny that, I saw an away side playing against their bogey team and give it a go right until the very end despite being a goal down and having only 10 men. As for the "dive", according to the rules of the game it's the contact that dictates the penalty is given not the way a player goes to ground, there was contact.
