Cheap in my opinion considering he already got the shot off, but Ederson only got himself to blame

Especially after the player's got the shot away and the ball's long gone, not sure about that decision myself.
So we can hit, foul, kick and clatter into players in the box after they shot?

How is that a penalty??
The same as it was for Argentina vs Croatia. And whole Caf said it is a penalty (and i was labelled as bad loser :wenger: ).
Same thing.
Explanation from refs were that gk must touch the ball to avoid penalty in these situations

No way VAR was denying that for Arsenal after the last game and Arteta's moaning. I won't be surprised if they get more favorable decisions over the next weeks.

Bruno at the Emirates & McTominay at Palace we’re both stronger claims.

We’ll see similar not given throughout the rest of the season.
It’s one of those that if they give it, they have to be consistent and give it every match — but they never will

Not seen it yet but Townsend is saying it's a great and a brave decision.

It's a pen for me. Usually contacts with the GK in the box goes in GK's favor or the play goes on. Hence very few penalties like this.

I can see why it is given but we would never get that. He did make a shot. I don’t understand rules anymore.

There's not a chance in hell that penalty gets given had it not been for the VAR controversy at the weekend.

It's the inconsistency that'd maddening. That probably happens every game week,.more if you include defenders hitting an attacker after they shoot, and they are never given

Deepthroating information to Howard Nurse.
We got awarded one a few years ago against Roma in the EL. The ball had long gone yet Smalling crashed into one of our players
Wasn’t a pen imo then either. However that was totally different - smalling was attempting to make a tackle - Ederson is literally just setting himself to block the ball and Nketiah keeps running.

Great to come back in the game but i'd be furious if that was given against us. I don't think Ederson does much wrong.

Just in case anyone missed it. I don't like Mount.

That is never a penalty, its the reason why Pep, Klopp and now Arteta cries about Refrees after every match and something Ten Hag has to adopt as well, otherwise you never get any decision. This is like a compensation to Arsenal for last week against Brentford. Furthermore, where the feck is VAR?
