Moreno got great genes, not surprised by the goal

Stolen from RAWK

Don't think Dier could've toppled a toddler playing hopscotch with the amount of contact. Allen greatly exaggerated the contact, one could even argue that he DIVED, and went down to get a penalty instead of carrying on. Football sucks.

That being said, that was a great goal by Moreno.

Because it was barely a pull. Slightest of contact. When you play football and you get tapped like that it really doesn't obstruct you very much.

It doesn't matter how much contact there is in that situation. He was pulled by Dier for no other reason than to unfairly impede him, no attempt to win the ball or block it.

The only thing that you can say in Dier's defence is that his attempt at cheating was piss weak.

I'm not really trying to defend Dier. He can't have any complaints.

Just saying I think there's a gap in the rulebook somewhere when something as slight as that gets you a free shot at goal.
