Shouldn't matter ref blew final whistle games over, so I bring my previous points back goals should be given from games weeks ago 

I look forward to your reaction if we experience the same situation as United did today one day, especially if the penalty is the difference between us winning the title or not or even finishing in the Top 4 or not...

no one is arguing that the play itself was a pen
what I (and I am sure others) am saying is two points
1. outrageous the game was still being played, 5 minutes extra time and yet it was coming on on almost 97 minutes and STILL being contested (there was no injury that would have justified that length of time being added)
2. the double final whistle, with the pen coming after the first one


1. Yeah but that happens. They scored a goal and he let them take a corner. It does happen a lot. Its annoying but it is what it is.
2. Yeah I had the same feeling. But then I saw the rules and it is in the rules. So var made the right decision. Unfortunately the right decision benefitted United.

Doesn't matter the fact is it shouldn't be allowed, its a bullshit rule.

Forget the pen, cuz it was a pen. Where did the 7min come from? As soon as Brighton scored that should have been it.

How long did it take for Brighton to celebrate their equalizer? Pretty sure the referee has the right to add minutes upon the injury time given - something that is not set in stone - if things like that happen.

or 30 to 60 seconds max, not almost 2 fucking minutes

it sounds like little time, but so much can happen at one end of the pitch in 30 to 60 extra seconds

it wasn't a CL final in extra time with players mobbing and fans running out

No he hasnt, you cant add mins on top of extra time as you see fit. You can add 1min at most, only in epl I see this BS, it does not happen this often in other leagues. Its ok im sure we will witness much much more bullshittery throughout the season....as a footy fan first you cant be happy how footy is going in epl.

will be forgotten when the press go into GGMU mode "Ive just watched the build-up to Uniteds winner again. Its hard to be sure without a slow-motion replay, but it looks like the ball was out of play before van de Beek won the corner." + Matic red card + Pogba pen (100% certain other end)
