formerly known as ivan Posted October 16, 2022 Report Share Posted October 16, 2022 Seen a lot on social media about the penalty incident yesterday vs Everton and how you fooled the ref into giving it. Now I’ve watched it a number of times and I cannot see how anyone could argue against it being a penalty. Pickford has thrown himself into Kane. The impact is clear and Pickford’s head even bounces off Kane’s leg such is the force of impact. Am I missing something? Is there a reason it’s no so clear cut as what I am seeing?

Plain and simple. Anyone saying that isn’t a penalty has a bias against Kane, Spurs or for another Prem club. Kane isn’t squeaky clean, and he’s certainly a master of inviting contact, but that’s one of the clearest penalties you’ll see. This is the angle everyone needs to see, clearly taken out by Pickford and potentially also clipped by Coady on the heel first: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BS13 Robin Posted October 16, 2022 Report Share Posted October 16, 2022 Seems a definate penalty to me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Red Posted October 16, 2022 Report Share Posted October 16, 2022 One of the more obvious penalties you'll see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rossi the Robin Posted October 16, 2022 Report Share Posted October 16, 2022 Seen pens given for less. Kane seems to be coming into form as well, all good for the World Cup 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haaland's form is overshadowing what everyone else is doing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grifty Posted October 16, 2022 Report Share Posted October 16, 2022 I think Pickfords reaction is the biggest indicator. After the contact is made he just lies on the pitch trying to disappear. After the penalty is scored, he is holding his hands up apologising to team mates, fans, etc. If Kane had dived, Pickford would have been all over the ref arguing his case. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it wasn’t for Haaland then his form would be getting a lot more attention. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
