Goals and Key Highlights
Salah penalty 75’ (1 - 0)
Salah 90’ +7 (2 - 0)
Never going to hear the end of this Konate thing… Not a booking for me, all the hype about it is just contextual to the match IMO.
If no double yellow for Young and no earlier booking for Konate, nobody would have been claiming that the later foul was a yellow.
They could easily have had two reds and another penalty. Young could have got sent off earlier. So they can moan all they want.
I strangely think it was one of the best ref performances we’ve had this season.
Completely agree with you. Bit of a tit for tat
