It's really bad luck for Ajax, but Blind's second yellow is stonewall and if you give handball there you can give a yellow. So not sure what part is entirely wrong..

Complete misunderstanding of football as a COLLECTIVE enterprise.
It is matter of perspective. If someone wants to give 100 percent credit to pep then so be.it but I think Pep was also fortunate to have messi xavi iniesta and vice versa.

Blind was fouled before his tackle and the penalty decision was wrong. Basically Chelsea got a goal and an extra red card for free. Most likely Blind wouldn't have gotten a 2nd yellow is he would have gotten the foul.

Never a handball from Tammy, his hand was by his side! (that's right lads?).
You're getting confused. Goals are disallowed if the ball touches a hand of a player on the scoring team in the buildup. Like there and like with Mane vs United.

It's not a penalty if the roles are reversed (in the PL anyway).

Inter got absolutely taken to the cleaners this half. They can't even string 5 passes together.

That used to be the rule, not anymore. It is a shit rule but it is the rule.
Are you confusing this with the attacking rule where if it hits the hand the goal can't stand ? Because to my knowledge his hand isn't in an unnatural position

No one gives him full credit, no one, they simply recognise the key part he played, as many others did, including players and coaches and to a lesser extent others whose names we will never even know.

Surprised there aren’t more empty seats. You’d think a handful would’ve left at 4-1.

EDIT: commentator literally just brought this up now
