On Boxing Day there must have been almost five minutes from the referee awarding the penalty to Haaland eventually missing it. Pickford was literally using every time wasting trick in the book and it worked.
Three days later Ortega gets a yellow card. It was deserved but Christ it smacks of inconsistency.
Either that or City need to study at shithousery college because we're hopeless at time wasting
You say ortega,s card was deserved. From the ball being thrown back to him by the ball boy, it was 12 seconds before you hear the ref whistle to book him. When we are chasing a game, you will never see an opposition keeper booked so quickly. No way it was deserved.On Boxing Day there must have been almost five minutes from the referee awarding the penalty to Haaland eventually missing it.

Keepers against us regularly hold on to the ball for 15-20 seconds despite the six second law existing. So refs don’t enforce that law nor do they book the keeper.You say ortega,s card was deserved.
