Estupinian with a lovely freekick

Ortega could only watch

Amethyst101:
Chelsea 2-1 City

City equalized and have been very dominant this 2nd half, but Chelsea went ahead through an own goal from Hasegawa, after a great work from Bronze and Ramirez

about 5 minutes, plus stoppages to go

Full time, 2-1

One down, three to go.

These two are sisters at this point

Our women are ahead in the league cup final

Mayra Ramirez👏

@BlueMann, how do the girls navigate this period?
We have not been so assertive and convincing in our play lately

We start this afternoon with the League Cup final

Omo, na to dig deep and get the win anyhow this period. Thankfully City themselves haven't exactly been stellar so while this is a big run of fixtures, I'm not afraid.

And we won't get him back till 26/27?? 😂✌️

Well just realized he was heavily kinked with Man United, but Amorim didn't want to poach his former club till the summer. So we've basically just stolen one from under their nose

Woke up and saw Geovany Quenda has completed his medicals bruh who tfff?? 😭

This nigga above me lmaooo

Palmer has finished me.

This Palmer sef

George has been feeling it since like the 30th minute...the dribbling dey enter

George you have to pass that man wtf

Hall. Thank God

Unlimited22:
There's no point in getting Palmer on

No point at all

Unless he matches the formation or finds a way to counter it or just waits for fatigue to get them, nothing will change.

Well...

No single shot in the first half

Against Copenhagen

I shake my head when these players commit the most obvious fouls. Example, see Neto, why will you barge into the player like that when he has nowhere to go? I knew it was a freekick well before he even committed the foul

Unlimited22:
See this animal Neto

Lol

The guy no even raise head go up at all

No single shot at all

See this mumu Neto

Nice work earlier from George but the final pass was poor

Playing absolute nonsense btw

Our midfielders must be on drugs. Na small remain I go swear for Enzo and KDH

fredoooooo:
Olopa ewo n tepe... wetin happen gangan

Very stupid people E come pain me pass say dem qualify, e for good if dem just go house

Na God go just punish Lazio sha. E get why

So Sanchez has retaken his place as the number one.

adexeli:
I'd argue that the rule is fair enough since the probability of scoring a PK is relatively higher than the probability of the goal keeper saving it or missing. It makes sense if the rule is skewed to favour the goal keepers coupled with the fact that there's already a rule stating they need to have a foot on the line.

I see your point...but nah, cancelling the whole kick is too harsh for me.

Bombblacks:
It would be like asking a penalty to be retaken because the taker slipped and then misses. If a
penalty taker slips when taking a penalty should he also retake it?

I only brought up the slip to buttress my point that the cancellation is really harsh on Alvarez, who I'm sure wasn't trying to be clever. My main grouse is with the rule regarding a double touch. My own is, slip or no slip, intentional or not, if there's a double touch and the taker scores, the kick should be retaken and not cancelled completely.

The perfect equivalence would be awarding a goal to the opposition team if a goalie saves a pen with neither foot on or behind the line. It's just too harsh

iamoyindamola:
Thank you that's what the law says

I think the law says the penalty is canceled. I've seen it before. I just don't like the rule.

andrewbaba44:
So someone scored 1 goal in 30 seconds and held it for 120 minutes

No be tactics be this sha

They had the better chances and much more attempts though. And their possession was around the 38-40% mark until second half of extra time.

The way Alvarez landed shows that if anything, he must've slipped

But my main issue is this: Even if he did touch the ball twice, why cancel the pk outright and award it as a miss? Why not order for it to be retaken?

If the goalie saves a pk but doesn't have a foot on or behind the line, or some of his teammates encroach before the kick is taken, is a goal awarded to the opposition?

I've never liked that rule. Too harsh

Started following PSG keenly after Messi joined, and two of the youngsters that immediately caught my eye were Mendes and Vitinha. Been a fan of them since, and I'm glad to see them putting in elite performances at the biggest stage present day. Warren Zaire-Emery is another with world class potential

drisham:
Them or barca deserve it

Yeah, I'm perfectly fine with either of those two.

Entire PSG defence need to be given king treatment

And na dem win group stage o
