Think Ederson should have done better with their goal

PLEASE tell me the sarcasm is going over my head here.. please..

Closes eyes and holds breath ... anybody else think Dean did just fine? Yeah, he missed a call here and there, but he got the 2 non-PK's right, and he didn't hand out a single card thru 20 fouls in a physical match. He even let some guys get in his face and scream and was tolerant of it, let the steam escape sorta. It was a fun contest to watch, and he should get a little credit by the way he reffed it. shrug, seen worse ...

I thought he gave a couple harsh fouls on Dias in the first half that looked like he was ready to give before the sequence was even over but yeah, I think he wasn't nearly as bad as some are saying.

No, he wasn't covering his near post

Watch the replay from behind the goal. No
Keeper in the world is saving that

That’s incredibly harsh.

Snapshot that hit the inside of the post?

Nah. Good finish from a corner that should never have been.

Sorry I don't agree

And that folks is the sort of game that wins you the title.

We looked jaded the second half, but that first half was phenomenal.

Those boys will sleep tonight, they deserve it.

No, he wasn't covering his near post

He doesn’t know which is his near post when a corner comes in.

 

[Man_City_Loyal]

Game of two halves

 

[Tangled up in blue.]

Should always cover the near post from a corner

 

[Shaffer92]

No, he wasn't covering his near post

lmao do you want him hugging the post leaving 95% of the goal open? It was a brilliant finish that hit the very inside of the post. here it is again, have another look..

He knows which side the corner is on

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

He knows which side the is on

So if the ball goes to the far post, he can’t save anything because he’s covering his near post, just in case?

Keepers have to be in the middle of their goals for corners.

He’s about 75% towards the near post!

There‘s literally nothing more he could do unless he was a cat!

 

[chaddblue]

Sorry I don't agree

Fair enough.. your opinion

but a keeper never stands on the near post for a corner and it was in the back of the net in a flash from the corner as much in the corner of the net as it is possible

Big win! Way to fight and stay ahead but boy was it one scary second half.

In off the post..... there's lots of goals where we think he should have saved shots, but not that tonight

 

[Tangled up in blue.]

I thought he was slow to react, plus why was there no defender on the goal line

Defenders on the posts stopped around 10 years back.

This was our first goal conceded from a set piece this season.

I think we generally do ok.
