How bizarre. Penalty all day long.

All day every day and twice on Sundays! Still, Karma for trying to defraud every team they play out of about 7 pens!

This is what I don’t get about he VAR thing though. It was clearly subject to debate so why doesn’t the ref just trot over to the screen and have a second look. Isn’t that fundamentally the point? Why wait to be told by a team of others when you can just go and review it?

Yes it does

Jesus knocked it past Kompany and out of touch hoping to win a pen 

Ball was well out and gone before any possible foul to consider

 

ball was in play still ? 

:laughcont:

When he makes the foul the ball is still in play.

It would also make it less awkward than him staying on the pitch with his hand to his ear.

I don’t particularly think Brazil other than Neymar have dived much.

Not when the contact happens - Jesus already on way down

Even that’s a sideshow as Jesus has zero chance of retrieving the ball if Kompany waves him thro

It was an attempt to ‘win’ a pen , and you are never going to get that decision in a million years , and rightly so

If that decision had happened during a City game, this forum would head into meltdown with outrage! It was a penalty, yes the ball was heading out of play but that doesn’t matter. 

He’s slid in, got absolutely nowhere near the ball and gone straight through the player. He was looking for it but that’s not the point is it. Pen all day long.
