Most people turned to congratulate Chelsea for the fascinating game, but indeed Manchester City has a few advantages over key decisions. The most apparent controversies were the soft penalty awarded again, and no foul for the handball. Sadly if the standard of refereeing is normal, Chelsea should deserve a win.
I could see the ref missing it, but the linesman is on that side of the pitch. How could he miss it
If you blink, you miss it. These things happen. People forget what it was like in the past. The most incredible infractions would happen all the time. It’s unfortunately normal.
Wtf, it was outside the box and Walker wasn’t even looking nor could anticipate the ball. The Chelsea penalty however was nonsense. Dias got the ball and he dived
Lol
Exactly, the whole fucking stadium and world saw it
Yeah. On replays. Don’t think the on field refs have that advantage.
I was there. Can confirm we all saw it
Linesman missed a blatant corner for Arsenal the other day when it clear was you like rebounded off an opponent not 2ft away from him.
It’s like how much clearer does something need to be
Refs have line technology so if the ball had completely crossed the line, which it didnt, they would have called it.
It went out of play and they called a goal kick. It for sure went out of play. They just gave the wrong decision even though it happened right in front of the linesman.
People complain about this then also complain about VAR being a thing. Either you like “human error” or you don’t.
