West Ham penalty. Very soft again.

OldCastleSwift

Lanzini...

Scores.

I think this and the one last week were both nailed on, personally. Just clumsy defending both times.

Hamstew

Soft imo

Yeah, seeing the replay there was a push. Cornet playing a very specific role this season.

MrsGrey

He clearly pushed Cornet. Enough to unbalance him and knock him out of his stride.

Maybe not enough to put him on the floor, but it was a foul that stopped him running/competing fairly for the ball.

If the refs were better at giving fouls when they are fouls even if the player isn't put on the deck we wouldn't have so much of this ' soft' debate. Imo.

BubblesNeverDies

I think it was a shove, which as I understand it, is the next step up from a push.

MrsGrey

Omg . Commentator telling us about house prices in Silkeborg.

Nudge < Push < Shove

OldCastleSwift

I really don't like Lanzini in a two. Offers no cover at all when Rice carries the ball forward and there are big gaps in our midfield.

How much for a 4bdr 3br with 2 car garage?

Maybe he knows a thing or two about surveyors

Scamacca with a rocket

OldCastleSwift

Wallop.

Scamacca smashes one in. Great finish. Foot like a traction engine.

MrsGrey

Urgh. My stream lagging.

Hamstew

Boom

MrsGrey

But I had a warning so could pay attention ☺️

Apols.

MrsGrey

No, need the heads up!

Fans in fine voice

Areola’s got away with one there. That’s never a foul

OldCastleSwift

Crikey, these officials. Two offsides against us that weren't and now a corner for them when it evidently wasn't.

But we get a lucky call for a foul on Areola which wipes out an equaliser.

Hamstew

What is Areola actually doing there. Shocking

Great use of crikey. Don’t see the C word all that often.

MrsGrey

Shouldn't have been a goal cos it wasn't a corner.

Two wrongs seem to have made a right...

thornburyiron

Whether it was or wasn’t a corner we should still have defended the corner better. Lucky for us no VAR tonight.

OldCastleSwift

Nice bit of liquid football, there, resulting in a corner, which Dawson heads in. Obvs.

MrsGrey

Dawson. Glad for him.

Hamstew

Bets in. Cheers Dawson

Beeb suggesting it was a foul on Emerson, not Areola, that the ref blew for.
