He immeadiately waves his fingers to show that there was no foul. Before even VAR. Surely you’d want to make sure there was no foul especially in the box. Or maybe someone could explain to me how this isn’t a foul? Anyways ik I’m pissed about the result and biased but I can’t see how this would be a clean challenge.

Have no idea how this wasn’t given. I really want to hear the reasoning on this.
all those charges against City have swayed the refs and now Arsenal can bore their way to the title
That’s not a pen we all can see rodri got his shot off before any contact
Post the other one so I can see plz didn’t get to watch live but commentators were freaking out about it
I’m a city fan so not on the wind up. I know tensions are high, but that is absolutely not a pen. Would have been incredibly soft
Call me ignorant but I don’t understand the rule of the game on why this wasn’t given. Anderson missed the ball. He hit Rodri. Why was the foul on Allison against Nunes given?
It’s not that I come in peace, or cannot fucking stand arsenal but that’s late contact on rodri is it not, the same type of shit the gooners would get away with ? Fuck arsenal, praying you lot can still catch them
No pen but the first one was much closer.
I’m sorry there’s no way this is a penalty
I mean there where to pens in that game. Idk which one was worse.
someone please post the Erl one it’s driving me nuts actually 😭
Never a pen. His studs aren’t up, sometimes people kick each other in a game that revolves around kicking. City were shit in the second half, again. Deserved result.
Would have took the penalty but it would have been very soft pen.
Never a penalty. Got his shot off fine and no real follow through on the block. Defender has a right to play the ball which he did.
You know that’s never a pen
I guess it’s cuz the ball is already gone. I personally wouldn’t call this cuz it didn’t really impact the play and the die was already cast.
That is not the best angle… show from the other side and it’s a high foul on Rodri. Doenst matter if studs are involved (would have been a straight red if so). Late challenge, didn’t touch the ball, always a foul outside of the box… Haaland same: always a foul outside the box and doesn’t matter if he can get to it or not and this is called all day everyday in EPL (not that I agree with it but it is the letter of the law). To have VAR not review or review and disagree is something else entirely.
Odd they look the other way and may haw a second year in a row with a boring runaway winner. Hurting their product with these inconsistent refereeing results. I’m sure Arsenal have also had some overt calls against them but the PGMOL needs better training, more transparency and demotions for errors ( a point system with grading for each match that is publicized would clean this up much better- competition for keeping your job and the money that comes with it)
End rant
Never a pen imo
Damn, that’s la liga level refereeing.
Rodri quite clearly follows through and makes contact first
It’s funny because if this happens to Madrid or Barca in the UCL, it’s an instant penalty lol. Not even a doubt.
