Justice!!! Great save 

[RumbleFox]

That was never a penalty in a million years. 

[Finnegan]

It's actually unlike Messi tbh. Very rarely ever makes a meal of anything. 

 

But think he does there. 

 

I mean yeah he bops him on the nose but it doesn't impede him does it. Doesn't really do anything. Not a pen. 

[foxfanazer]

Can't even corrupt the games properly

Totally agree. Just two players going for the ball with slight contact. Great save justice served.

It’s the extra couple of million that the Qatari’s have slipped into his pay package. 

[Dan LCFC]

Looks like the Messi Ronaldo final has been ordered.

[Tielemans63]

Still only a matter of time before they do score though.

Was the keeper just supposed to not reach for the ball? Ridiculous. Justice in the end.

[STEVIE B]

Justice. Never a penalty. 

Why can't some refs grow a pair & stop being dictated to by blind VAR officials sat in a hut ?

the ref

[messerschmitt]

Anyone remember Ederson punching Iheanacho in the face and not getting a penalty. The Sky ref on Monday after said it was not a penalty as contact was inevitable!

I don't get how Messi is the one that's corrupt here

 

[Finnegan]

I mean the corruption calls are a bit silly aren't they tbf. 

 

It's a penalty that's a good reflection of how the current wording of the rules when it comes to contact in the box just isn't good enough. But you can see why it's given by the current standard. 

 

We've seen loads of pens given like that from soft contact and not just to "big teams." 

 

This one is less controversial than the Ronaldo one IMO even though I don't think either should be given.
