Premier League Festive Season

That is a pen and a dive in one. Ødegaards should have been given aswell.

HOW DID MARTINELLI MISS THAT!!
 
Has to be a penalty. The left leg caught him. I don't understand how the commentators are oblivious to that. Goes to show how tricky refereeing is.
Yea even without the pull its a pen. The way he dives confuses the whole thing though
 
Yes he grabs his shirt but he throws his legs back and superman's himself to the deck.
Argument could be made he’s helped to go down by the Arsenal defender sticking his legs out in front of him? He kind of stops Silva then swings him round to the ground as he’s going down.
It’s idiotic
 
Without the shirt tug (that doesn't make him fall as he's clearly already decided to dive) he doesn't give it but oh well...
 
Plus nice dive you can add…

So ignore the blatant foul by Xhaka because Silva dived afterwards to draw attention to it?

Martinelli misses a sitter. Arsenal players do idiotic things to get sent off and a meltdown ensues. You love to see it.
 
Penalty can be given but very hard to see the consistency when the Ødegaard one wasn't clear and obvious. One of the problems with VAR: The illusion of objectivity.
 
I’m not watching the game just following it through this thread, this game sounds very chaotic :lol:
 
Totally inconsistent referring here. If this is a penalty, then Arsenal definitely should have gotten one as well in the first half
 
Absolute bottle job. Arsenal should be 2 up ffs. This is why they aren’t top 4 contenders
 
Was it a straight red?! Must be a second yellow right?
If that was a straight red it's a horrible call.
