What a joke to send Gigi out like that.
#MAKEMANCHESTERREDAGAIN
Need to develop some goddamn academy players. Who is the last good one to come into the first team and make an impact?
Juve got the rod. Probably would have lost in extra time or pens anyways but still, that referee should be embarrassed.
I thought both calls were correct
Linesman had a better angle and kept his flag down, ref was directly behind Benatia and had no way of seeing the contact. Not saying it wasn’t a foul 9x out of 10. But in that situation from that angle it shouldn’t have been, and if it were pique fouling dybala in that same exact situation it wouldn’t have been called. Like I said, Juve were probably gonna lose anyways.
I have gone back and forth on the call. I kind of come back to "Vazquez probably would have scored but the defender prevented that without touching the ball". That's a penalty to me.
I've watched the play a good 15 times and I still don't know whether it's a penalty. I do think Oliver was absolutely right to send Buffon off.
Gunners are moving on to the Europa semis it appears.
