Match Thread | Liverpool vs Man City (30/07/22) - Community Shield

[Semper aggressus]

Nah come on, we'd want that for us.

I think it’s just straight at him with Dias making no attempt to block with his hand, it’s not deliberate so in my opinion not a pen. It’s just hit him, by accident. Where’s he supposed to have his arm when he’s jumping?

 

[Josh_D]

It’s just annoying that it was a wank header as well but it is what it is.

Psychological blow especially as City’s momentum was up.

 

[BlueMojito]

Can't wait to beat them to the league again this season.

 

[pablozabaleta]

Full of tourists filming and celebrating the scousers penalty in the city end. This club is done.

 

[Damanino]

did ederson ever save a pen?

 

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

It's an embarrassment. Where was the var check for Fabinho falling on the ball with his hand?

EXACTLY.

Embarrassing double standards.

 

[give it to gordon]

Still think we have been the better team apart from the first 20 minutes. No panic here

 

[Bazzmand Show]

Watch them celebrate this like they've just won the CL final.

As I said.

 

[Gorton_Tubster]

Cmooooon City!

 

[SidJames]

Poor header from Nunez results in a pen typical.

Wasn't even on fucking target.

No idea what Dias was thinking there.

 

[RayCTID]

It was a penalty but so was our incident. Harsh as we had been the better side in that half.

 

[Zin 'messiah' Zimmer]

And people say we are hard on Milner? What a ****

 

[bluemonkey71]

Eddie wasn’t far off

 

[ShedDweller]

I don’t know what the defender is meant to do in that situation, trying to get his hand away.

They didn’t even show a replay of Van Dyke? lying on it the their box

 

[deano ou812]

This genuinely does mean more this to them.

Probably cos they know they won't be winning the league again so they have to grab what they can.

Your actually not far off with what your saying they need this win more than us ..

 

[Chris B]

There’s gonna be a lot of handballs this season if that how it’ll be interpreted.

 

[yeseye]

Well
That’s that. Just turn it off

Never!

 

[unlikelyfan19]

As is tradition in this position. "The supporters shield is just a glorified friendly!"

 

[bluemc1]

Not intentional not unnatural but they’re going to give them all day everyday

So easy to give, arm not buy his side and it hits his arm

 

[SebastianBlue]

Are saying that's not a pen?

I am saying it used to be if the ball played the arm—which was the case here—rather than the arm playing the ball, it was not a handball.

Where is his arm meant to go when he is in full stride? Run like a penguin?
