Not a dive but not a penalty either. Keeper got a foot on the ball.

He was clearly on the way down long before the touch from the keeper.

How the feck are people in here saying that's a penalty and not a dive?? It's as fecking clear as day it's a complete dive. He's falling way before contact and dragging his leg while doing so to ensure there's contact. Well deserved yellow card, fantastic call by the ref.

"You and your paper can feck off."
Sky Sports for City's goal: "Was it offside? Doesn't matter, the ref says it stands"

They're now discussing the non-penalty like its the biggest injustice in Manchester since Deidre was sent down.

He was going down before the touch from Subasic. No pen. Had he held his dive a fraction, though..

I'm surprised Sky still acknowledge that the CL exists.

It is a pen, the player has the right to jump if he is going to get taken out. He exaggerated it too much though.
But jumping is different to going down before the contact is made. I think a penalty might have been given had Agüero not tried so hard to get it.
