      Absolutely! He did deserve it..If it was a certain rat desert mercenary, we would be suffering from another stupid Interview with his stupid buddy on how Penalties hate him meanwhile penalties are what has kept him alive 💀

      Why is no one talking about the boxing incident? How is a player allowed to do that? I've seen red cards given for far less.

      Man as a neutral I was expecting a lot more from a champions league Milan Derby this was disappointing. Inter did a good job and won deservedly but Milan hardly tested them. You’d think Milan would at least get out on the pitch and play like a team that has 7 CL titles but if this is why they have to offer it might be time to pack it up and call it a season.

      Managers should get a certain number of challenges a game like in the NFL. Manager things it’s a bad call? He can challenge it.

      Var did make a decision it called referee to review his decision, you guys in the media like pointing wrong finers to VAR because it g8ves you something to talk about

      As a Celtic fc fan im glad Inter Milan the older of both clubs won plus they were team celtic won against in that famous first ever European cup with same trophy we view today in 1967 Lisbon , Portugal when Glasgow Celtic became the first ever UK winners of that veru trophy
      as year before was White jug like trophy was European cup which Real Madrid won in 1966
      Celtic fc won very first of trophy we view today now as Champions league trophy
      and done such a feat Celtic fc with an entire all Scottish team inc Manager a Scot and all players were born from within a 30 mile radius of Celtic park and so is something we wont see again ever .

      Anyhow i feel Inter Milan older of both clubs that they get more so ignored
      between both clubs who share the San Siro together ..Been on a tour of stadium a few yrs ago
      Ac Milan were receiving these new black / red leather seating in their dressing room.
      Whereas Inter Milan had the white benches as seats and not leather Plus on tour was no Inter Milan tops but only Ac Milan tops left within Stadium to purchase and so left alone ..

      Was this a pen well not seen it but Inter still would have won .

      They should have given a penalty and red card for AC Milan defender punching Bastoni in the box. That was clear and obvious. No VAR there. That is a huge miss. No one is talking about it. ???

      The thing is that he made such good dribble to get away from the defender after that decided to go for a dive which is mind-blowing when he was one on one with the goalie which lead to to another conclusion how well train are south Americans to dive. Even they dont want it they still do it. Penalty for Argentina

    22. William on

      Obvious diving in the box for a penalty should be a red. If fouling to stop an obvious goal scoring opportunity is a red, falsely creating one should be a red.

    26. Paulo Cole on

      No….but they did deserve one for the punch on bastoni.
      Should have been a pen and a red card.
      I do hope that doesn’t end up a deciding factor because it was embarrassing it was missed / “neglected” by the VAR.
