Match Thread | Man City vs Southampton (10/03/21)

[Plays By Sense Of Smell]

We've spoke to the VAR match centre and this is why Phil Foden didn't get a penalty...

"The on-field referee felt that Alex McCarthy got a slight touch on the ball, and VAR couldn't see anything to disprove that."

FUCKING LOL

Or prove it for that matter.

They managed to miss the ankle breaker though!

Said in my other comment, he only touches the ball because Foden plays it before he gets there.

Anywhere, on any pitch, 90 minutes and beyond, that's a foul.

I agree. Whenever they "slight touch" you know they've lost the argument. It's either a touch or it isn't. No middle ground.

Tyler can’t even add up

Stop saying Moss isn't doing his job right. He's doing exactly as he was told!

 

[Summerbuzz]

Damn I forgot how stressful this game can be. Still get sexy feelings from watching us play this way.

fucking joke they are openly admitting

 

[Heath Park]

Why don't you discuss the Foden non penalty again Martin Tyler.
You are an embarrassment to sporting journalism.

Fuck sake , tyler mentioning rags again

 

[stan bowles]

Slight touch on the ball ? Well go and look at it then. Look at it from several angles until you are satisfied one way or another if he did or not. The review lasted what ? 10 seconds ?
The whole thing has just been brushed under the carpet because we're ahead but the game is rotten to the core.

So moss felt the keeper got a touch, wow he is making a decision by touch now. He is supposed to see the incident. Var like everyone else could see the keeper did not touch the ball.So why didn't,t they give the pen.
