Palace v Man City FAC

[JamesL]

Gary Lineker just said

"Never heard them use the word obvious before for denying a goal scoring opportunity"

Whilst on the screen the little tile said consideration for DOGSO.

And that "we've been in contact with VAR"?

He's doing his best to get himself sacked, whether for social media posts or just general incompetence

Ball is going in the direction of the goal area. Such a clear DOGSO.

What this does show is why the AR has no chance of giving it. Not a still he will be framing

Yeah, that is really poor for an elite level AR, he's miles off the correct position and doesn't really appear to be making much of an effort to get to the correct place.

I can’t believe all the pundits think haaland is going away from goal. It’s baffling. If that ball isn’t slapped away from him he has an easy pass into an open net.

 

[QuaverRef]

A man confidently quoting a law in which he has no idea about the wording. This is why we have no chance when it comes to spectators and pundits.

If Palace wins would PGMOL/Webb dare admit it was an error? I'd wager they'd "support" the idea of Haaland going away from goal.

Not on ITV. They’re still going on about how it should be a red card.

All the BBC studio pundits are saying red card too.

 

[cwyeary]

How that took 3 minutes to come up with offside I will never know.

The FA appoint FA Cup games

 

[David F]

Surprised the going away from goal thing is even being mentioned - firstly because it’s the illegal action that takes it in that direction, and secondly because a shot from a wider angle with no keeper in the net is much more likely to be scored than a central 1-on-1

I get its a head "injury"...

But the referee has actually messed up here, hasn't he? The last touch of the ball was in the penalty area and the dropped ball shouldve gone to the keeper.

Yep, should have been drop ball to the goalkeeper.

Strictly speaking yes, however the law is changing, so one to be aware of:

I realised that, but this game should be playing the current law, not the new one.

 

[cwyeary]

Congrats to Palace!

Also perhaps the most impactful VAR error I can remember, in my opinion.

 

[Kent Ref]

Man city should have been against 10 for a long time. This will caused ructions.

 

[Josh the referee]

At the same time though decisions even themselves out really. Pen was never a pen, just fortunate City missed it.

On another day, Henderson gets sent off and De Bruyne probably gets sent off for 2 bookings
