KdB conned the ref there. Surprised the ref fell for it.

That happens to Ronaldo like twice a match and we don’t get it.

So much talk by pundits about not enough contact, etc. However they won’t mention that here, they will just say it’s poor defending.

This is the problem, the complete lack of consistency.

Was a very obvious penalty. Fair amount of crying in here :lol:

I always believe that for late pen, game changing pens, the main ref should always check the VAR as a precaution. There is too much at stake to keep the initial decision without checking

Soft pen? You can't kick on an opponent's ankle and say, soft pen. Dear fans remove your red tinted glasses and be objective, that's a stonewaller.

Shameful dive from KDB, but Fulham deserve that for such a timid pathetic display.

That's a penalty every day of the week. You can't do that in full force without bringing your man down.

Why would you swing your leg like that in the box so late in the game? Yeah KDB exaggerated contact, but he still caught him

It wasn't a dive. If studs went through your ankle that way, you'd probably cry more.
Ha! No I won't. That was as soft a penalty as they come. It's a contact sport. Studs did not 'go through his ankle'.

Clear pen. Just look at the reaction of the fulham players. Barely any protest.

It's a contact sport yes but I guess it wasn't contact sport when the pen was given at the other end. The Fulham guy didn't even get the ball. Of course I would love for it to not be awarded but common it was clear as day.

Somebody tell me how kicking someones left leg makes their right leg buckle? Its a load of bs and it goes on all the time.

I’d love to have a view of all penalties given over the year and pundits viewpoints on them…you’d see so much contradictory statements.

Ie. Sancho v Newcastle - not a pen, too theatrical
DeBruyne v Fulham - you know what he’s going to do, it’s a guaranteed pen (no mention of the theatrics or anything)

I'm not sure how I'm watching this with Gray and Keys.... but with all the red cards they continue to say "next weekend off before the World Cup", so the production team is utterly woeful at feeding them anything since both serve their suspensions midweek in the cup yet they keep repeating, also just dreadful, but all I could get for the City/highlights :lol:

De bruyne knew what he was doing, Robinson complete idiot, would have held on for a point there.

Same as United back in the day. These serial title winners always find a way to win.
