Was the ball over the line?

[borassic]

my old man called it as out straight away and i told him he was a blind bastard, i suppose i'll give him this one.

I saw the game and have now looked on several websites. My first thoughts have thus been confirmed by a myriad of sources. City won 3-1 so the second goal must have stood. That means the referee and his assistants saw nothing wrong with that goal so, in their opinion, it didn't go out.
As a cricket umpire once said, when a batsman claimed he should not have been given out; "look in the paper in the morning".

 

[ono]

Wish it was further out.

Stones looks a better bet for a ballet career than a £50m defender

Wish the ball had gone into the net from the side as well to make it even worse and I wish Aguero would have punched the ball into the net rather than using his head. haha

This with big fuckin bells on. Love it.

Swings and roundabouts people, swings and roundabouts.

Barm, Quinn, in.

Are the correct answers! 3/3. Well done.

The whole of the ball has to be over the line for it to be out. From behind, it looked out but the closer the angle of vision gets to the line itself, it's certainly far from conclusive and may well just be in. Certainly far less clear than the penalty we should have got in the first leg and the foul on Aguero before their goal tonight.

It was well out mate but like you say,far less clear than the other decisions however sky will be showing it in super slow motion for a month.

Scouser sat next to me in 228 (only became noticeable that he was an Everton fan when Aguero scored) reckoned he'd got a text from his father saying that the ball was well out. He seemed shocked when I said "Good it makes up for the penalty that we were cheated out of in the first leg." He then nodded in resigned agreement and fucked off before the final whistle. Overall I've got to say it was a highly satisfying evening.

I just wish Pellers had turned to the Sky Commentator and said "I saw chalkdust"

Karma no doubt... For the blatant Aguero foul before their goal tonight and for the Penalty we should of had at Goodison.

And I know this happened afterwards but what a fucking **** that goalkeeper is for them bastards.
He was literally pulling up Kevin De Bruyne, he was in serious need of medical attention and he was doing this.
Vile human being.

Karma is Real.

 

[lancs blue]

I had a good view from EL3 and it was out but not "by a yard" as I read in the BBC text coverage. Anyhow the assistant was in no position to give it as he was behind the play and wasn't in line when Sterling crossed. Payback for the pens we didn't get in the last two meetings.

He has apologised to KdB on twitter, saying he didn't realise he had a serious injury in the heat of the moment.

 

[birchwoodgingerste]

Or

will they show foul on sergio before everton's goal?

the horrendous foul on de bruyne by the same player clearly stamps on de bruyne a left calf and pulls him back

 

[Prestwich_Blue]

It was well out mate

You sure?


Look at that photo. Is the whole of the ball over the line there? Doesn't look like it is to me. May only be a couple of millimetres but part of that ball is within the white line.

True, my bad as I didn't see his apology. Respect to their keeper for his apology.

Yep.
Nine times out of ten,the linesman or fat bastard of a referee would of called it.
I'm glad neither could keep up with play.
