Even tho Real have come back to make it 3-3. Perhaps Manning, with a decent striker, will get us scoring three a game. Perhaps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neuer literally moves his leg towards Saka, with no intention or possibility of playing the ball, and fouls him. VAR once again proving how pointless it is. I think it's not clear cut. Initial thought was blatant pen. On 2nd viewing, Saka moves his leg for contact. On 3rd viewing, both players have moved their legs, Neuer's defense would be that his is towards the ball, although it's a very clumsy challenge. I think Bayern have got away with one because it was clumsy, but I can understand the point of view for no pen. I'm saying this as someone who was brought up with an Arsenal supporting Dad and taken to Highbury (once) during the Invincibles season, and a relative who has just signed into their academy. I'd have liked it to be a pen and I'd narrowly say it probably should have been. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2015 Posted April 9 Report Share Posted April 9 Definitely not a penalty and that's all we're going to hear over next few days. Bayern Munich played well I thought. Still got world class players which our media forgot about. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking for it. Equally first angle, goalie also steps in to him. Pretty sure he could have stayed on his feet and just put it in. https://streamin.me/v/89915d02 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although it could well be given, I don't really see how that affects Bayern enough to cry about. It was just a little miscommunication that had no consequence to the gameplay itself Ref was excellent in his general demeanor and control of the game.

nebristolred Posted April 10 Report Share Posted April 10 (edited) That Saka penalty shout is a real tricky one, and yet again just shows how hard it is to referee a game. I think you can make a pretty decent case for both shouts in reality, but for me it's not quite a pen. Saka clearly looks for it and although Neuer is a bit daft with his challenge, Saka deliberately leaves a trailing leg way too far out. As 50:50 as it is, I think it's a superb decision from the ref. The easy way out would've been to give it. Edited April 10 by nebristolred 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
