Because if the player holds his head, the ref has to.
We were just talking about that.*
I'd like to see the ref have words after, and remind them of the boy who cried wolf.
*Yelling at the television. But I don't think he could hear me.
But Henderson was holding his knee. No reason for the ref to stop it.
Still, interesting first half. Barca were niggly and a bit cheaty, but so were Liverpool (Milner and Fabinho both went down holding their face when there was minimal contact).

Oh, sorry - I thought you were talking about the earlier stoppage when there was minimal head contact, but the player was 'feigning' head injury. :ok:
But, it's always up to the ref to stop it if he thinks there's a serious injury and the player needs attention? Surely we don't want to go to the situation where the ref doesn't ever stop the game UNLESS it's a head injury?
Can’t believe what I’ve just seen. Barca didn’t start playing until it was 4-0. I can see it being an all English final as Ajax have been poor in their home legs.

It is in his DNA to cheat.

3-0 the Liverpool with 35 minutes to go.
It’s all square :nonono:
