Historical moments of cheating | With a super-sized portion of salt

I'm sure it is pal.. say it one more time for. just before bed.
Don't know about "cheating", but there's a match from 10 years ago I'm still mad about.
2009-10 season, away at Chelsea: blatant last man foul in the box by Terry on Rooney, nothing given. Then some dodgy decisions (offside? penalty not given? don't remember) against Valencia too.
Chelsea won 1-0 from a late free kick (some obstruction as it went in too I think), scored by Terry.
League decided by a point. (Same season as Drogba's very offside goal, but I think Macehda handled for his goal that game too).
Luiz's debut game (2-1 loss at the Bridge) was worse refereeing, he should have got a red and 2 yellows for various assaults and dives, but don't care since the league was won.
On the other hand, referee also let this slide in that game:
e - you can enjoy more salt i found the match day thread

e again- mixed up the penalty (was Valencia) with the offside (was Rooney)
No, they defended well, and if they deserved feck all then neither do you. Having more possession does not make you more deserved winners if you can't put the ball in the goal. You had some half decent chances, but not like you were carving them open time and again.
The only funny thing is seeing the deluded England mob trying to justify that they won by cheating and thinking the world is aginst you. It was not a soft pen, but a dive. The strawmanning is ridiculous. England are a dull and boring team who deserved feck all in that game as well.
Sorry...how is 'They’re my second team. And have just cheated their way to a final so I thought they were hot topic tonight' clearly taking the piss
So apparently it's not ok for England to cheat but it's totally fine for Spain, Germany, Portugal, Italy and France to make an art out of that.
Yes he pulled his shirt backwards and by the laws of physics we all know that causes your body to propel forward on to the ground.
Just look at Immobile in that game where he lies in the opposition’s penalty box. There are dives and then there are pure theatrics..
The shirt pull happened before the dive, therefore penalty!
Well, no penalty in this case as it was the worst referring performance in the history of any sport in the known universe.
As a neutral, I agree 100%. I'm surprised there's even a thread about this. That was a clear penalty.
Because a lot of posters, and that includes a lot of the English posters, hate England.
That is theatrics, problem is VAR can't do anything about that.
3.2 xg to 0.3. Take your nonsensical arguments elsewhere.
Come on, you were the better team and their goal came from a free kick that was dubious to say the least but you can claim anyone knocked Sterling over with a straight face.
Chelsea should have been in the CL final against us. They were cheated out of it by Overebo. We'd have beaten Chelsea in the final of 2009 CL, therefore, United have been cheated out a CL win.
Only if you promise to drop one more bitter tear.
Yes, because you never hear English commentators and pundits whining about them foreigners diving do you?
xg does not win you games, and actual football does not work that way. Take your clueless posts elsewhere.
Clear an obvious error. Which it wasn’t. There was contact, so the on field decision stands.
Wow.
Kasper MOTM
Can’t remember Immobile conning the ref into a pen?
At least in that case there was actual contact.
Kane didn't even score the penalty so its a moot point anyway. His goal was from open play.
I am glad you wholeheartedly agree.
A great point, fell over from a standing position because an arm was against his chest.
I’m not gonna argue that, it was ridiculously soft as feck and “never a foul” if you think the Sterling one wasn’t, but Shaw stuck his arms across him and invited the situation.
I shudder to think what would've happened in here tonight hand England lost.
Because several of you have absolutely shit the bed after a win.

I never thought of that. We've been robbed and we didn't even know about it.
His legs
He's been gone for a while so my hate for him has subsided slightly. This just brings it all back. He was horrible.
England were better but about half of that must have resulted from the penalty and rebound if I'm not mistaken.
I'll never ever understand somebody wanting their own national team to lose! Madness...
I'm not saying Shaw didn't invite it. It was a mistake from him alright. I just think it evens it out a bit. Both decisions could well have gone the other way without too many complaints.
I mean it was very clear and obvious, contact does not equal penalty and there wasn't contact when Sterling started going down, there was a body brush as he was going down. It was *clearly* not a pen.
England was likely going to win anyway, but it was an absolutely garbage decision made all the worse by it being in extra time of the semi final IMO.
I don't think you can get 1.6xg from one incident fella.
Well there was clear contact on both.
I'm more amazed some people still think the Kane incident was a penalty.
Maybe you should re-read your original bitter, miserable little post if you haven’t edited it.
I can read perfectly well thanks to the free education my great nation provides. An education for which many people from around the world come to benefit from, and those people are all welcomed here with open arms. A xenophobe like you wouldn’t get that though.
As a newbie I’ve run out of posts now but it’s for the best as I’m off to enjoy my country making the final of a major tournament, something you’ll never experience.
have a great week…..I know I will x
He genuinely had a ribs broken from that kick from Evans. Don't know if you've ever broken a rib but it hurts like feck!His legs
He's been gone for a while so my hate for him has subsided slightly. This just brings it all back. He was horrible.
Drogba was a tart but this wasn't an example of it. You need to goto the Jens Lehman one for the best.
