Give it a rest. He kicked Neuer to try to win a pen.
Champions League — quarter-finals and semi-finals draw
- Thread starter Red Star One
- Start date
-
In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
And you still won’t win the league
Interesting direction to take the thread.
Shows that it were a lot of great shots from difficult positions, not clear cut chances as such.
Just saw the hand ball scene with Raya and Gabriel (or Saliba?), wtf?
I didnt catch that in the game

Mods could maybe remove “draw” from the title? Thanks
Alas, very unlikely. They are too strong, no shame in that.
Ironically I think Arsenal are best equipped to deal with them. Pep teams don’t suit us at all.
I disagree. They didn't create anything today and basically scored 3 wonder goals. You have more than enough pace to punish them on the break, I thought you were quite unlucky today.
Thats a penalty
Tuchel talking about it post-match. TNT no interest in showing a replay and never mentioned it when reviewing the major incidents.
While we were sloppy on the counters, the flow of the game wasn’t out of the ordinary between Pep and Carlo. Especially the second half. Think they’ll go full throttle like last season and we aren’t able to beat the press.
We’d need a brilliant showing from everyone. I just can’t see it. Or we go Klopp style and try to press the hell out of them but that won’t happen.
In real time I thought no penalty. But then after looking at replays it seems like it could have been given as Neuers right leg was still moving it didn't stop like many suggest. But no way VAR overturns that.
If you are trying to buy a penalty when you stick your leg out keep it low. Makes it more believable. While changing directions no one naturally takes the knee/leg so high.

This is the scene i referred to.
Apparently the ref said thats a "Kids mistake" and he cant give a penalty for that in a CL QF.
What kind of bullshit explanation is that??
We are they not talking about the penalty Bayern should have received? Clear handball.
That's pretty blatant, how the heck did VAR not catch that??
Neuer's leg was moving forward and you can see Saka dangling a leg but I couldn't really tell if it was a pen or not from the replays as I never saw it full speed.
Crazy explanation
Think you need to be more wary of taking shots outside the box, happened last season too. You can't let Foden/Rodri/Kdb shoot with that much space.
Wtf. How wasn't that given?
I would be pretty annoyed if that was called a pen against us...glad it wasn't given. I actually think he could have maybe made it around Neuer.
That's modern football for you. Games gone
I'd rather they tonked us 1-5 again than concede that penaltyIf that was given that would've been the most Arsenal way to lose a game.
Wtf is Gabriel doing...That is insane. That is genuinely infuriating that it's not given as a pen, it's the most basic application of the rules you'll ever see on a pitch. You can't just decide to ignore the rules cos the players are morons.
If he really said it, a bizarre one.
It's a kids mistake, so you let kids off when they make it. Not highly paid professionals.
Keown blaming Tuchel for talking about it if the ref gave him an explanation, rather than the ref for not making the decision.
I get the explanation about the ref influencing the match by whistling during the execution of the goal kick since it probably confused the players
TNT finally aired the incident and Rio admitted it was a bigger shout then Arsenals
He did but he only had to watch it 4 times first
Yeah, not 90… “earlier”. Not 18 mins to go.
Ref whistled before Raya kicked the ball
Yes and as he doesn't have to whistle in that situation to allow Raya to kick the ball it could easily be misinterpreted as him whistling to stop the play again. Which wasn't his intention, but could be understood in that way. Still a very stupid situation.
Are you having a laugh? Arsenal are the scouse of the South with all your bitching

this is crazy
Sadly, that I agree with. We don't have the killer instinct anymore.And you still won’t win the league
The man is a certified moron
