Premier League Gameweek 3

Another deflected goal conceded by Norwich. They can't catch a break. And there was no chance Kasper was getting anywhere near that header.
 
Why was that ruled out?

It still counts as being in his possession when he throws it in the air to kick it. The Brentford player would have had to intercept it *after* the goalkeeper had kicked it for it to count.
 
That Southampton performance and result last week really was shite wasn't it ?
Yes
we had chances but then those last 20 minutes were a give away
With teams playing each other it would have been a great chance to get a lead over some rivals
 
Vitaly Janelt (Brentford) nicks the ball off Emi Martínez (Aston Villa) mid-air during a goal kick and puts it in the back of the net



The thing about this one which is interesting is that I always understood you cannot do that because the ball is still 'under the goalkeeper's control'. However, the striker here makes contact with the ball when it has just left the penalty area as Martinez takes a stride out of the box, so how can a goalkeeper even theoretically be in control of the ball with his hands if he is outside the box?
 
Norwich outplayed Leicester. Really unfortunate not to at least pick up a point. I'd be interested to know how many touches Vardy got in the second half.
