Absolutely a stick on penalty there. Has to be.

Pretty dull game this, especially since the Young red card. Both bookings were correct though IMO.

I also think, despite the attempts of the commentators (and Dyche) to curry controversy, that Konate's foul there was not enough for a yellow card. If there hadn't already been a red card and if Konate hadn't already been booked, nobody would have been saying the later one was a yellow.

Also, Ally McCoist continues to be a dreadful co-commentator.

I think it should've been a second yellow, based on the cynicism of that foul. He knew else he was doing.

Also, Liverpool should've had two penalties. Not sure why the first one wasn't given.

Yeah very confused about that first one as it was clearly a foul, he completely takes Diaz out and doesn't get near the ball. If Diaz isn't fouled he is completely free on goal (albeit at a not great angle)

The Patterson challenge? Looks a pen at first but on replays there's no real egregious contact.

[–] keyez@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

It's definitely a yellow based on the yellow that Tark received, they're almost identical

We also have our match thread at c/liverpool as well. There can obviously be two threads, but just wanted to share this in case there are any reds that weren't aware of our community too:
