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.

    The penalty call was a joke, Haaland is in front of cucu because he yanked him out of the way.

    The handball is kind of a could care less. It’s accidental so no card, and outside the box so just a free kick (and that close to the box almost never results in a goal). Most people aren’t going to care about it as it very unlikely amounts to anything.

      Fucking exactly. Drove me crazy watching it live that the commentators completely ignored the fact that Haaland clearly yanks him off balance initially
