Match Thread | Manchester City v. Wydad AC (CWC) 18/06/25

[Micky Blue]

Cheating bastard...did he even touch him?

It looked to me like he got his chest not his head.
So even in this the refs are shit and give us fuck all.

 

[burning blue soul]

You can't beat a good old controversial City sending off.
Joke decision

 

[Gumzy97]

It’s a red because his boot hits his head, dangerous play even though he couldn’t do anything about it

 

[jimharri]

To be fair, it does look like he catches him on the cheek. I'm sure there was no intent, but I'm not sure there has to be intent for a red card to be issued. How many red cards is that for him now; 3?

 

[IcriedwhenTueartleft]

the reaction of that big bellend didn't help...cheating twat

 

[Betterdeedthan red]

At least we won’t see Lewis in the next game

Fuck off

 

[HelloCity]

players know what they’re doing. his foot goes up towards his head unnecessarily

Let’s be honest, even if you think it was a red, he didn’t do it on purpose. It was an accident.

 

[Gordyola]

It’s a red because his boot hits his head, dangerous play even though he couldn’t do anything about it

Nonsense

 

[glauberbertistossedshirt]

I see why many south American officials get lynched on the pitch

 

[moomba]

Yes I did and still do and it’s a red. It wasn’t intentional but there were several cases in football where players still got a red. years ago the same happened to Son in the premier league. If that was Rodri you would scream for a red

The Son red got overturned fwiw.

 

[Streetsweeper]

Obi-Mikel says red. What a surprise that is.

If he had a semi-coherent thought, it would die alone.

 

[Sparkys-Army]

That opposition managers shirt is pissing me off. Thought he spilt water on him after HT but looks like it's a shit design.

 

[urban genie]

Can see the Lewis boo boys are loving this, fucking wierd any blue is defending that farce of a decission

 

[IrishBloodEnglishHeart]

Only a matter of time before slide tackles are outlawed

 

[Betterdeedthan red]

To be fair, it does look like he catches him on the cheek. I'm sure there was no intent, but I'm not sure there has to be intent for a red card to be issued. How many red cards is that for him now; 3?

It's a friendly it doesn't count

 

[Kippax Street 1880]

The bit where Rico doesn't make contact?

Could well be, I'd have liked to have seen the angle from the other side of the pitch.

 

[Blu1]

Ffs Haaland was praying he took that. Poor finish

 

[Gordyola]

players know what they’re doing. his foot goes up towards his head unnecessarily

Ever heard of momentum and Newtons laws?

 

[RiversideBlue]

Can see why he gave the red dangerous play even if you win the ball the referee can still call a foul Lewis just unlucky

He kicks the ball, collides with the attacker whose tackle is late, his foot is forced up in the air and collides with the attackers head that is two feet off the ground.

 

[waspish]

Should be burying that Haaland
