Apologies if fixtures but I've been too hungover to keep up to date....
Everyones moaning that the foul on Izquierdo wasnt a penalty, but post match in the concourse they were showing highlights of the game and there was one angle, in line with the referee, that showed it definitely was a foul.
I can't find that video anywhere - anyone know what I'm on about and know where a link is?
The replays I've seen on MOTD etc don't show this particular angle. I'm not overly bothered as it's funny they think it wasnt a foul but I want to see it again!
I don't think it was a pen, but I think from Friend's viewpoint it looked like one. Being behind the players he would not have seen the defender make contact with the ball.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
I saw the highlights after the game, but people are saying the Palace player got the ball, as if that negates the foul. When Stephens got his red at Middlesbrough, he got the ball, but it was still a foul.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

The thing is, the replay from that angle shows it clearly was (he took out Izquierdo first)This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Very much this. Irritates me so much when commentators perpetuate the myth that the player getting the ball means no foul is committed. Absolute nonsenseThis quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Come on now. There’s nothing dangerous about the McCarthur challenge. He’s very clearly won the ball in the only manner to be expected, gets there before Izzy, who kicks him and goes down. There is not a chance it’s a penalty.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

Yeah I know the angle, from that angle it looks a stonewall penalty, and that was Friend's angle (and I'm pretty certain they did show it on motd). But it clearly clearly wasn't a penalty though (but I'm not moaning)This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
I'd need to watch this again.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
However - the angle in question show he doesnt get there before Izquierdo. He takes him out first, then gets the ball. None of the other replays show this as they don't have the right perspective and it looks like a fair challenge.
Defo wasnt on MOTD by the way, not the one Im thinking of anyway.
Unfortunately I have to admit that I saw it as Izzy kicking the defender not the other way around. I'm pleased we got the penalty but I would have been unhappy if a penalty had been awarded against us in a similar circumstance.
