RB Leipzig (H) | Post Match Thread

Goals change the course of games, and when the first two goals are dubious, it's going to affect how the rest of the match plays out. If Leipzig could've kept a clean sheet until the break and Ederson had been shown the red card, who knows what might have happened.

Let me make this clear: City are a WAY better team. They are going to win this fixture 99 out 100 times, especially at the Etihad. But they shouldn't have received those favors from the referee. Leipzig were denied any real shot at this game because of him.

We saw how Milan and Inter went through by digging in and playing ultra defensively (albeit against worse teams). Had a similar referee been in charge of their games, they wouldn't have had a chance.
Such refereeing performances bring the game into a state of disrepute. I don't think it's in City's best interest to win like this either.

In short: Congrats on your advancement. Massive performance. But I don't want to hear you guys ever complain about refs again.

The penalty was soft & I'd be pissed if it was awarded against us, BUT it was VAR who spotted the handball & advised the ref to look. The defender's arm was outstretched & the headed ball brushed his arm, albeit unintentionally. By the unfair letter of the law, it's a penalty. How is that the Ref's fault? It's the laws of the game that need looking at again.

How was Haaland's second goal "dubious"? KDB shot & hit the crossbar & Haaland was on hand to head in the rebound, so again what was "dubious" about that goal?

As for Ederson, yes his tackle was rash, but the ball clearly brushed the top of his shin. There were also two defenders beyond him, not to mention the player alongside the Leipsig player who got clattered. The Ref saw no issues & neither did VAR. Even if Ederson had missed the ball, the worst he'd have got was a foul awarded against him & a yellow card.

The Ref wasn't unduly lenient & nor did he favour City, especially because the penalty & Ederson challenge were adjudicated by VAR, & the Ref was guided by their advice. So are you saying VAR were in on last night's travesty too?

I'll say this as politely as I can... Go fuck yourself you bitter Tarquin twat! We batter Leipsig 7-0 & you have the utter gall to come onto a City forum claiming our victory was littered with favour toward City & we were essentially lucky because we had a bent referee?

Mate, have you actually heard yourself? :-/

I think it has dawned on a lot of gunners that City will make the run in as tough as possible.

That’s what happens when your club has not competed for 20 seasons. No metal, no balls.

Yesterdays demolishing of RB has scared a lot of Arsenal fans. We are coming for you!
 
I was impressed and thought we were great but then I realised that bagging five might be an achievement at any other time but not in a season when Rashford has been even more sensational than normal.

Fuck off knobhead. Have you forgotten the clear penalty we were denied in the first leg? Of course. As for last night was it a soft penalty? Yes, but they do get given. Did any fan or player appeal for it? No, so out of our hands ( No pun intended.)

The Ederson incident? A tussle for the ball. It was never a red card anyway as he didn't deny a clear goalscoring opportunity as he was a fair way from goal and surrounded by defenders. We didn't need any help from anybody and I guarantee we would have beaten them with ten men, albeit it with more of a struggle.

You better hope you win the title this season. You have taken the league by surprise this season and are playing exceptional football. By our standards we have been off it and are having a transitional season....yet you can't shake us off and are still only five points clear. Next season we'll be stronger and teams will put eleven men behind the ball when they play you like they do to us.

You're lucky to still have Arteta as the majority of you were calling for his head not long ago. Your fanbase are shite as is your letter writing club.

Great performance from the lads.

One match at a time. Let’s not think too much about the result, except for gaining confidence.

It was a shit or bust week for us. Lose all three and our season was as good as over. Thankfully we've won two, hopefully it will be three on Saturday night and we carry on.
