Another game, another fuck up by the refs.

Getting silly.

 

[zomgbbqftw]

Tbf, it's not like Spurs were ever in the game

We had a legitimate goal disallowed. We were in the fucking game.

 

[Meier]

There's the foul/red card for those curious.

 

[King_Moc]

I don't even care now. This is a disgrace, that linesman should be ashamed of himself.

At least the red card will be overturned.

When he's driving home in his brand new car? I doubt it.

Thiago's golazo: https://vine.co/v/MuVQuiMHtDm

 

[Draconian]

Not even close Ramires.

 

[The_Hitcher89]

You do feel bad for Spurs because that's a tough decision, but Rose took an unnecessary risk and was punished for it.

Explain to me how it was unnecessary? Dzeko was one-on-one with the keeper.

I know its not great when you have to admit that you've taken advantage of terrible decisions, but it's better than this bruv.

Brilliant tackle. That would never have even been a yellow back 10 seasons ago. Wtf has happened.

 

[Unreal Champ]

Danny Rose is shit. Don't understand what Spurs fans see in him

Dat 1 goal goodness.

 

[CyclopsRock]

You haven't even had a shot on target. It's a bad decision, but it's not like it was a close game

Sure we do. We had one, and it went it.

 

[Ushojax]

An unnecessary risk? He made a successful tackle.

The simple truth is that the linesman would rather punish us by ruling a goal out than risk awarding an offside goal against City. Same for the penalty decision.

Edit : Capoue YES

 

[spidye]

Hnnnnghhh

 

[Meier]

That's one way of explaining a failing linesman I guess.

I don't really think that's fair to say. When you come in from behind on the last man, you're begging for a red. It's just the nature of the game -- if you do a two footer like Flamini did and get some ball, you're still likely to get a red.

 

[Barzul]

Just seen Thiago's goal. Amazing.

 

[Yen]

SPURS ARE RIGHT BACK IN THIS

 

[cremino]

There's the foul/red card for those curious.

It's a penalty but not a red card....

 

[Suen]

YEEEEEEES SPUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUURS IS ALIVE!! EAT IT PULGA!!

 

[Vivalaraza]

That's silly.

He wasn't punished for that. He took a risk and win the ball. You always take a risk when you tackle.

The ref just fucked up.

Thiago's golazo: https://vine.co/v/MuVQuiMHtDm

Lovely.

What are the defence doing tho?

 

[CyclopsRock]

You do feel bad for Spurs because that's a tough decision, but Rose took an unnecessary risk and was punished for it.

But you don't get punished for "risks", you get punished for "fouls". Which he didn't do.

Edit: Capoue hohoho. Erikson is the set-piece king.

 

[SaltyMeatballs]

Tbf, it's not like Spurs were ever in the game

At 1 - 0 they were still in the game. The same linesman also disallowed Spurs' goal for a non-existant offside.

Anyway, fuck it. It's over now.

 

[Showaddy]

You haven't even had a shot on target. It's a bad decision, but it's not like it was a close game

That fucking shill linesman had already denied us a goal.

 

[Meier]

Explain to me how it was unnecessary? Dzeko was one-on-one with the keeper.

Because he had to know that there was a far, far, far greater chance he'd get booked for a red by fouling the last man than to successfully graze the ball.

 

[Yurt]

Sorry City, but after this

Spurs are the '#deserved' winners.

 

[Linius]

You can't compare Flamini's tackle to this. This is a clean tackle perfectly executed. But I'm not gonna get into this because I don't really care who takes home the points in the end

 

[Suen]

Wow...what a beauty.

 

[Mr Cola]

Kroos does not look like a happy bunny. The gloves are off. https://vine.co/v/MuVTwrPaEJI

Do it Moyes

 

[pulga]

Better said, you are behaviours. Complete and self-describing beautiful behaviours.

 

[Draconian]

LOOOOOOL Carroll

 

[Lambda Pie]

PUT MATIC IN!!

 

[Yen]

He didn't "graze the ball", he made a successful tackle.
Edit : and I'm not arguing over semantics, he made definite contact with the ball

 

[The_Hitcher89]

They're not even remotely alike

Flamini was sent off for endangering his opponent, just as Rafael should have been even though it was a clean tackle

Linesman fucked up and has royally fucked Spurs, plain as day

 

[bjaelke]

Carroll you saint

 

[Linius]

Wow...what a beauty.

Maybe you should start supporting Bayern. You don't have a German team yet right?

 

[Meier]

Yeah, that's easy to say when you see a replay in slow motion. It's not as easy to see in real time. You make that tackle attempt, and you're begging for a penalty/red in this day and age. That's just the way it is.

 

[SaltyMeatballs]

There's the foul/red card for those curious.

Tackle of the season. Oh wait, red card and penalty, loool.

 

[Fergie]

How do City get away with it? You would think refs would be wary of the previous controversy.

Unlucky Spurs, but at least it benefits United.



Willian is shit.

 

[GQman2121]

Bless you based Andy Carroll.

 

[Barzul]

How bad was this Carroll miss?

 

[cremino]

You can't compare Flamini's tackle to this. This is a clean tackle perfectly executed. But I'm not gonna get into this because I don't really care who takes home the points in the end

hmmmmm... I think it still was a reckless tackle

 

[José Mourinho]

Right, get Mata... Oh.

 

[bone_and_sinew]

WHAT?!?! I switched this game off at 92:03 since the second half of Spurs-City was starting. You mean to tell me those Bayern cunts actually pulled it off? FUUUUU

 

[Vivalaraza]

Yeah, that's easy to say when you see a replay in slow motion. It's not as easy to see in real time. You make that tackle attempt, and you're begging for a penalty/red in this day and age. That's just the way it is.

This argument is complete and utter nonsense.

He made a fair tackle.

It's not his fault. You cannot expect players to play the game allowing for the incompetence of officials.

 

[Ushojax]

MANCINI LIVES

 

[Pizza con salsiccia]

Brilliant tackle.

WTF

He didn't even touch the ball and you call that brilliant ?
Get out of here.

 

[Ravensmash]

Lol Adebayor.

Such a character.

 

[L1NETT]

looooooooool Ade

What a character

JINX RAVEN

 

[Draconian]

How bad was this Carroll miss?

He should've scored. He was wide open on the right side of the penalty area.

 

[Yurt]

4-3 I am wetting myself

 

[didamangi]

Villa pen!
