When is the last time you saw a yellow for kicking the ball away? Must be ages, that rule almost never gets applied

In which world? Both yellows were spot on.. Absolutely no questions about either.
I didn't say it was wrong but it was really harsh. If it was Juve who did it I honestly could have seen the ref not giving it.

Juventus has equalized the tie 2-1 in the game and 3-3 on aggregate.

Porto in big trouble.

When you do it so blatantly you don't leave the ref a choice.

Because after the shoulder barge Haaland's arm came out and shoved the defender. Was pretty soft though.
Wasn’t the goal cancelled because of the penalty? Everything that happens after the pen incident is nullified when the ref decides it’s a pen.

You don't really see players smash the ball away like he did anymore (probably because they know it'll get them a pointless yellow card).

Just zapping in to the Juve game every now & then, but Cuadrado with a couple of stunning crosses there.

That was my understanding as well...

How is that a penalty. Shoves like that happen at every cross.

The hypocrisy of Sevilla players bitching about lack of sportsmanship by Haaland. Absolute twats. If never saw them play in Europe again I'd be delighted.

I cant remember the last time i sae a booking for kicking the ball away
He should’ve picked the ball up with his hands and held it for 15sec instead, all refs seems to think that’s perfectly ok for some reason.

That would be ridiculous. They wouldn't disallow a goal because someone got fouled before the ball rolls over the line would they.

Don't want any underdogs (bar Gladbach and Leipzig) going through here. Couldn't handle another Porto walkover for Liverpool.

If this Dortmund-Sevilla game doesn't prove that PL referees can't be blamed for what a shambles VAR is...

Ah, it's our old friend Cüneyt Çakir.
