villa4europe Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 Just now, andym said: Quality penalty by Ronaldo in that situation however. Don't understand the hatred for him really, he can be a prick at times, but he delivers on big occasions. For me it happens too often, 90 mins where hes done next to nothing, real madrid been pretty poor, get a contentious penalty, scores it, gets his goal gets his stat gets his headline and his look at me celebration and its not a 96th minute winner lets go mental celebration its the usual shirt off look at my 6 pack celebration I cant buy in to it Hes just a prick and it takes all the gloss off 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even in slow mo it looked like there was an initial push in the back that made him lose control of the ball, before the foot came round to kick his chest (and a bit of the ball admittedly) Quality penalty by Ronaldo in that situation however. Don't understand the hatred for him really, he can be a prick at times, but he delivers on big occasions. GOAT so he’s always going to have haters 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Rev Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 (edited) I have no idea how you embed Twitter videos on the current forum software, but it was definitely a penalty. https://twitter.com/rmadridsite/status/984178036433186816 Not sure how Juve are seen as some kind of plucky underdog either, OK they haven't got Real Madrid money and Buffon seems like a decent fella but we are talking about a club who have a history of institutional cheating here.

villa4europe Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 Yeah id be fuming if that wasnt given for villa Like i said though his anticipation is terrible, hes trying to bring that down under control no sense of benatia behind him at all, its clumsy as **** from benatia though, theres a photo in the comments, its he palm of his hands in the back that is now making me lean towards it being a foul and im pretty sure thats the view the ref would have had, if it was just chest to back contact then i still think i would say no penalty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hornso Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 I've watched Real play a few times this year and it frustrates the hell out of me how easily their players go down, but that's still definitely a penalty for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 Bayern are not being talked about. BT have pretty much said its down to Real and Liverpool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty to dislike about the guy, but his footballing work makes it so damn hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted April 12, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted April 12, 2018 Obvious penalty and red card. Brave by Oliver but right decision. I'm working from our Turin office this week so it was an interesting discussion this morning. Safe to say I was in the minority Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
