    Not clear and obvious for me - should never have been ruled out.

    Bias aside, I don’t think Antonio fouled the defender. I’d be the first to admit it was a foul if I genuinely thought it was. Antonio at the last second tries to shift his position to get away from the defender but the defender happens to move the same way at the last moment too, which makes me feel like it’s “one of those things” and simply an accidental collision.

    For a second I thought the defender was trying to block Antonio’s run but on second watching I think he was trying to close Rice down (although I think he would’ve been too far away to make a tackle or interception off Rice’s pass had Antonio not made contact).

    Antonio in particular must be frustrated that decisions aren’t going his way (including what should’ve been a foul a few mins earlier when he was holding the ball up on the half way line and unfairly was given a foul against him).

    I’d rather we improved and the ref doesn’t come into the equation.

    Can moan about the ref, he didn’t gift them That goal

    Think Fornals and Benrahma have been good tbh.

    Both players moved into each other for the goal. Shouldn’t have been disallowed imo. Antonio off at half time please, his heads gone.

    Well I hope the players are as angry as I am for the second half.

    Yeah, I do wonder how much Antonio's constant complaining to the ref influenced his decision on the goal. You'd hope none, but with these refs you never know.

    Only consolation is we are still above Utd at the moment.

    Man, now Fornals rattles the bar and Soucek makes a mess of the rebound.

    Feels like we're getting nothing from today.

    I can see it getting feisty out there

    They’re still getting through us far too easily though.

    All Forest now.

    A (legitimate) second feels inevitable

    We need to freshen things up and give us the edge with some subs

    I bet Benny gets hooked here.
