Unlucky for Eze, ref blew the whistle already.
That's a superb goal from Brentford, wonderful football and a lovely finish.

They need to start playing the Benny Hill during VAR reviews at every PL pitch.
So if you can't foul if it's not affecting play, why doesnt everyone just go round powerbombing each other off the ball?
10 goals in 26 league appearances for Brentford as a RW(?) since last season is a pretty impressive return.
PL Match Centre account gone quiet
Stain on the teamsheet
The defender was grabbing Hughes anyhow. It was as much a penalty for grabbing as it was a free kick for the defender
Yeah I wasn't replying about that, I am only half watching so not sure who fouled who or 50/50, I'd guess 50/50 as most are.
You can't just go around kicking shit out of people and throwing them to the ground because it isn't affecting the current play.

No one else will get itWill there be any real winners in the Cheatsea Vs Cheaty game?
This ‘already blew the whistle’ bollocks is ruining the game. They overrule decisions all the time, it’s literally what var is for. Why’s the whistle sacred in this instance?
Because the game was dead before the ball crossed the line? So nothing can happen once the whistle is blown? So the goal wasn't a thing before the game was dead?
Really not sure how people are struggling to understand this.
The game was dead the moment VAR was introduced
Because that would be a red card
How was that not a red card yet Casemiro got one for exactly that against Palace at OT?
Dead many years before that tbh. When did the oil men buy City?
Blowing the whistle didn't change anything. In a case like that VAR should really be able to intervene.
Keeper would say he just played to the whistle and didn't try, I mean we all know he was getting nowhere near it anyway. But it's play to the whistle.
It's harsh, ref made the mistake by blowing too quick.
You can't give a goal AFTER you've blown to stop the game. That makes no sense.
Amazingly bad refereeing to blow up in the first place and not wait a second or two, but then what's new?

Such a great joke. Poor souls
Well firstly, because people simply don’t go around power-bombing people, and secondly - if a goal is disallowed for a foul, the law dictates it consider whether or not that foul had consequence in the goal. The ref blew too soon.
How's Wharton been playing? Only just started watching and I've seen him put in a delightful cross into the box.
1-1
Palace level it up. OG. 1-1.
Game on
Cracking game this really enjoying it
This Palace manager is brilliant he’s changed a dull Hodgson led team to a dynamic attacking side in a matter of months

Very enjoyable.
Did they even draw lines on that? Looked right
Did the PL implement that new automated offside system or was that due in October?
Palace aren't missing Olise at all.
Definitely been the better team here

I've seen enough. Wharton should be our midfield target next summer.
He will definitely cost and arm and leg
Palace proper team, well coached!
Agreed, he looks a tremendous talent, offers a highly rounded game already, driving Palace back into this game.
What did he cost palace, just curious
Unfortunately he will be everybody’s midfield target next summer.
I think it was £20mil
Could understand if they were loath to throw a load of money on a Ugarte who might just be a stopgap for a year then end as another expensive squad player.
