Might have been a different story if his name was Heinreich Kuhn, right enough... Loathed as I am to defend him, dont think Kane does anything wrong there. Sees the defender and goes to block him. Hes hardly flung an elbow at him. I hate those things being fouls, let alone yellow and red cards. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It obviously happened during a replay or something and there was zero mention of it. It is up there with one of the worst decisions I think I’ve ever seen. i'm very suspicious of the clip being cut right as Raya plays the ball because obviously if the ball was rolling then he wouldn't have take a legal goal kick. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kane is a dirty c**t and has been doing this kind of thing for years. You could make a compilation of him trying to topple defenders going for headers. It's a miracle the mouthbreather hasn't seriously injured someone yet 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But dont think theres much in that at all tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genuinely mind-boggling that that wasn't given, and if what Tuchel said is true, the explanation the ref gave makes it even worse. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevieKTID Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 10 hours ago, Matty-RCFC said: I’m assuming it’s just the English pundits that reckon that’s a penalty. Quite blatant Saka throws his leg at Neuer there. I watched it on Dutch TV and Rafael van der Vaart thought it was a penalty, he's clearly been on the Heineken ever since he hung up his boots. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 On that "handball", it's entirely at the referee's discretion to determine whether the ball is in play or not. I think it's similar to a guy chucking the ball to a teammate to take a throw-in, or kicking the ball to someone else to take a free-kick, you wouldn't decide it was a foul throw or that the free-kick had been taken. If the Bayern players were pressing them into the box there would be a clearer argument of Gabriel being at it, but instead it seems to me like he's just expecting to take the goal kick himself. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Jags have a song "red n yellow army" but the words don't fit the song so it sounds like "rello army". I'm a mad keen cyclist and Francophile. Velo is french for bicycle, of course, so it was a play on that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SH Panda Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 Spanish football has totally conquered European competitions this millennium, not only have they won by far the most trophies they have the most quarter finalists this year again. And even the holders, with a Spanish coach, a clutch of Iberian players, a style of play far more Spanish than 4-4-2, are the ultimate tribute act. If you can't beat them join them. Vive Espana. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

throbber Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 Saka should have been booked surely. In real time it looks like a penalty but you see his blatant move towards Nuer, so ridiculous as he would have scored if he didn’t deliberately trip up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s such a strange scenario. I definitely take the point r.e. whether or not the ball is actually in play, but given how quickly Raya was wanting to get the ball back in play last night his intention there is definitely to take the goal kick. I personally think the ball is in play, hence can understand Bayern’s frustrations totally. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genuinely - before fully understanding football chants and how they work, some of which are nonsensical anyway and have a backstory e.g. Gerry Britton is the King of Spain - thought it was Regular Army for a long, long time.

It's unintelligible and it took me eventually plucking up the courage to ask someone (about half a dozen games after I first heard it) what the f**k we were singing before I got it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
