Paul Wilson in today's Guardian

When Everton themselves went down to 10 men a couple of minutes before the end of normal time there was a vehement protest from Morgan Schneiderlin that Sergio Agüero had also given the impression he had been kicked when in fact he had not

For some reason he didn't mention that this was complete fantasy from Schneiderlin.

he does go onto say that there was contact. I think in the context of the whole piece, it's reasonable.

he also wrote:
"Agüero’s overreaction, if that is what it was, seemed less reprehensible. Schneiderlin did catch him on the follow-through, and though it did not appear the most heinous act or obvious of fouls, modern professionals know they have to draw the referee’s attention to contact if they expect to win a free-kick."

No it's not. It's creating a false equivolence.

He's saying Aguero had a minute amount of contact and him going down was just like the kid clutching his face after getting bumped in the chest, "I guess we're all as bad as each other" etc.

Complete and utter bollocks, and very Trumpian.

Yep. Nothing wrong with that.
 
Can't believe how many on here accept the opinion of some rag hack who has probably never played football at any level and was probably half pissed from snorting on the City hospitality.
Use your own eyes.
