Not a red card. The double jeopardy rule for DOGSO was changed last summer. He made an effort to get the ball and didn't deliberately try and take him out or go in studs first.

It's not 100% at all. Watch it on TV. Keeper gets the ball first but then takes out Aguero. Keepers seem to be able to take a forward out if they get a bit of the ball. To my mind that is still a foul. It's not a dive, but it's not clear cut. The ref actually got most things right. What he got wrong was booking Aguero.
Definite pen. Keeper's leg was in agueros path after he'd put the ball past him. If aguero carries on running he'd have stamped on keeper's leg, hence why he 'dived'

The keeper got the ball, I can't see how it can be given as a penalty.

What a game. Have to say Monaco has some great talents. They really hurt City the first 70 minutes. Luckily a game is 90 minutes.
About the referee controversy: I actually thought he was brilliant. In my mind, Aguero was a little too eager to go down and that's why he didn't get the penalty. I wonder if his reputation in Spain is the reason behind his yellow card.

Watch much football?The keeper got the ball, I can't see how it can be given as a penalty.
Norman Hunter doesn't play anymore.
Ref had a good game......you are something else.Watch it on TV highlights. You might change your opinion. Ref had a good game. Very strict but applied rules correctly and consistently. One error was booking Aguero.

98% of penalties wouldn't be given if your "eager" rule existed.What a game. Have to say Monaco has some great talents. They really hurt City the first 70 minutes. Luckily a game is 90 minutes.

Having watched the goals last night and again this morning we didn't do much wrong for their goals. Yes, we could have got tighter to the ex Rag for his header, but Dihno was all over the place; he isn't a Left Back so we can give him a bit of slack here. Otamendi and Stones made errors. The second goal for the Rag I though he eased Stones to the ground as he was off balance more than Stones dived in; very clever forward play and immensely difficult to defend against. He made up for it with the goal though, and never hid all night.
Our goals were all good. Aguero was in danger of getting hooked at HT, but he came out in the second half a different player. He practically ran the show. Once Zabba came on we just clicked into gear.
Aguero pen? Nailed on.
Otamendi challenge? Not 100%; probably penalty, but why did it take so long? Same official that kept his hands in his pocket when Aguero was felled obviously plucked up the courage to open his mouth. Definitely something suspicious going on there.
Willy? 100% not his fault for their headed goal. Dhino should have anticipated the out ball, and we would have been away up the field. Unfortunately he was caught sleeping, and subsequently they scored. Penalty save? Not the best pen in the world, but he held on to it and changed the outcome of the game; at 1-3, we are dead and buried.
Over all a good win against an incredibly fast attacking team.

What a game. Maybe one of the greatest I've ever seen. We're so blessed to have the players that we have and the coach that we have. Hard to analyse the madness. Key things for me were Sterling/Sane get better with each passing week. Kun played 2nd half like an absolute beast. A monster. Performances like that will see him stay at City for many years to come. Toure deserves a new deal. KDB/Silva is the best midfield pairing in Europe. We can win this tournament even with Otamendi and Kolarov as key defenders in the team.
