Milan 17,957 Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Also, after a way more awful and unfair match against Barcelona, Guus Hiddink just stayed calm and went to the press conference.

xPetrCechx 13,571 Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Mourinho was right to say that the better team lost. On paper, Madrid may have the better players and team but Man United executed their game plan to perfection last night. They stayed tight and solid defensively as a team without the ball and were creating great chances when they had it. With a little bit of luck, they would have been leading 1-0 or 2-0 before Ramos scored that OG. Madrid were quite clueless then as they didn't have the means to break down United's defence. But that red card obviously changed the game and ruined it completely.Personally, I don't think the red card was a red card. Yes Nani's boot was rather high but he was watching the ball the whole time then and his intention was always to control the dropping ball. The contact happened only because Arbeloa came flying in and collided with Nani's boot, which was just an unfortunate collision. It's not like Nani knew Arbeloa was standing there and he raised his boot. Furthermore, there was even hardly a protest from the players when that incident happened. If anything, this was even worse and Drogba got a yellow card for it!DROGBA GOT A YELLOW FOR THIS FOUL ON HIM?!! WHY?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jase 43,479 Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 According to the referee he "dived". And Drogba's somewhat theatrical and slightly late expression/reaction didn't help matters then too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TorontoChelsea 4,064 Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 And Drogba's somewhat theatrical and slightly late expression/reaction didn't help matters then too.And reputation. It wasn't a dive, it was an embellishment. Drogba definitely was fouled, but he went down like he was shot. (The key is often that the knees are up when players dive/embellish to make it look more dramatic. When you get hit or tripped and are falling, you just put your hands down to protect yourself or try to cushion your fall in some other way. Anything else is just completely unnatural.) I'd actually like to see more double yellows. That is a foul where the player being fouled also exaggerates. Referees seem to think it has to be one or the other but often it's both.

Special Juan 28,141 Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 The refs decision has masked what is a pathetic and idiotic gesture by Ferdinand at the end. I knew that would get lost in all this, pathetic from him, the bloke is nothing but an oxygen thief. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milan 17,957 Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Spot the difference..."We should have decided the game before getting into a worldwide discussion of the penalties.Of course players can make mistakes, coaches can mistakes and referees can make mistakes, but that is all in the game. But if you have seen three or four situations waved away then that is the worst refereeing I have seen.I agree with the statement that if there was any justice in football we would be in the final now."VERSUSFerguson yesterday...

HRiver 1,512 Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 One ref decision goes against them and they all go bonkers, which just confirms the fact that the officials help them almost all the time. The sore losers aren't used to it.Why people are even debating is beyond me, Nani went kung fu on the Real Madrid player, it doesn't matter if it was intentional or not. That tackle was a very dangerous one, and thus a red card offence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
