Match Day Thread Liverpool v Real Madrid

Bright start,looking much more comfortable.

 

Clear pen there.

 

is that **** handball but if it ends in a pen who cares

 

His arm is about 2 yards inside the box, it's a pen

 

Long ball working well.

Zero risks being taken playing short just to play short and we are giving real the problems we are after been given by multiple sides.

Plenty of options from the willing runners.

This might be a pen BTW. Its the front hand so they need tje angle from the other side.

 

Disagree, don’t think it is,

 

Ref cannot over turn a free outside the box on var. He can only upgrade to pen or not.

That's not the rules for var.

Var cannot be used to change a free kick into a non free kick.

 

So not only do we not get the one for a handball, Madrid get the ball despite it going out for a corner?

Absolute shambles.

 

Absolutely a horrific decision they have decided they don’t want to give us anything

 

This

Personally I didnt think it was handball, but if the ref thinks it is then its a pen.

 

**** var

 

Always nice to see the officials are still in Real's pocket... brings a sense of continuity to the world

 

Ref again runs right in on top of macallister who is in an attacking position on tje ball.

Cuts his passing lane off

 

Refs literally been the 12th man lol

 

Been said about Real for many a year

 

Wasn't a free kick, wasn't a pen.. understand the talk of that's not the rules but wasn't either.

 

If that was explained clearly as clear and obvious error that hand in in box then they check if its deliberate that's one thing. But its a free outside the box so they've just said it was a pen but then ok its a harsh call.

Basically the ref made 2 mistakes

 

Should be a 2nd booking

 

Why is he not getting booked for simulation. Bradley never touched him in the way he’s exaggerating
