Yes, would be nice to see us try to start with an early lead for a change! Maybe start Kelly and Agyemang to try to get in front and start well, rather than having to chase again!
I don't think he meant it shouldn't have been given - more that the defender was stupid to haul her down just as the German player was stupid to pull the French player's flowing dreadlocks when she never even got anywhere near the cross. That was the odd decision. Not the penalty award (both were clearly correct decisions) but the fact that she got sent off for it when it was not actually a goalscoring opportunity for France.
Think that’s considered ‘violent conduct’ now. Someone got sent off for doing the same to Cucurella I’m sure.
