GWT: PL Matchweek (mostly) 28

He goes back to the first fouled play, which would be the handball in your scenario. So a FK for City.

Well the first foul was on the City player. The claim was that after the foul against him McTominay handled the ball towards Martial.

I just didn't know if you're allowed to follow the chain back to give United the FK they should have had or if it was just looking at the attacking teams actions prior to the goal.

Lindelof legits look like Butragueno with that haircut

THAT'S the one! Always wondered who had similar hair.

 

[Evilo]

Which was McTominay being fouled.

Yeah well I disagree with him being fouled.

If you feel like it was a foul, then go back to the foul yes.

Commentator A “That was a corner kick”
Commentator B QUICK CHANGE THE TOPIC
Commentator B look how resilient United are.

Vomit.

Mute the match if it annoys you that much, problem solved.

At least the title race will have a slight doubt to it now.

Ref gave the advantage due to it.

No it won't. Unless by doubt you mean doubt if City will win by more or less than 10 points.

 

[Evilo]

I think VAR cancels the foul in that scenario.

 

[Savant]

I do when LFC plays. Hot Mic is a good app.

Manu hand ball in the box btw

 

[hatterson]

Manu hand ball in the box btw

You mean when his hand was near his side, the ball was blasted at him from 2 feet away, and it didn't even hit his arm in the first place?

 

[East Coast Bias]

Manu hand ball in the box btw

On Matics elbow from 3 inches away?

 

[Power Man]

THAT'S the one! Always wondered who had similar hair.

You’re very welcome

 

[Jussi]

Nope, it was City.

 

[East Coast Bias]

Nice to beat that team though it won’t be enough.

and LOL at whining about fouls. One of the biggest strategies of Pep’s City teams had been just hacking and kicking people when they lose possession to prevent counters. Everyone on here has discussed it. The Liverpool fans were outraged for years about this. Now it’s not them battling City and suddenly City are the victims

 

[Savant]

Nope, it was City.

Yes 100%. Not even I disagree with that one.

 

[AB13]

Martial was absolutely superb all game

I don’t think that’s a facet of City’s play that really stood out to me. The only think that really bothers me about City is like 90% of the league don’t bother to show up against them.

Martial was absolutely superb all game

His finishing was poor, but his holdup play was exceptional.

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Just saw the replay again it was a handball. It wasn’t tucked in.ball went straight thru his torso and and arm.

Nope, it was City.

Gundogan had his arm stapled to his body lol

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

I don’t really care as Man U deserved the win. Just calling what I see.

The replay I saw it didn't look like it hit his arm and if it did it was after deflecting off his side, which would mean no handball.

Also arm position doesn't matter for attackers. It if touches the hand/arm period and creates a goal/goal scoring opportunity it's a handball.

 

[Power Man]

I totally agree

 

[awesomo]

They needed that win after the last few games. But hope rashford is okay
