As we have 2 of our home clubs facing off I thought we should have a thread.

Awful penalty decision.
Liverpool now just hanging back and hoofing it downfield. A third of the game gone and pretty disappointing

Never done this before
Correct penalty decision. Pretty dire since then.

Seemed to me that the ball hit Sissoko's side then possibly rolled onto his arm. I know the rules for handball are changing/have changed, but I thought it still had to be deliberate handball.

It will have been deemed deliberate from his outstretched arm.

Hit his chest or arm pit first and the brushed his hand. Probably a penalty as the rules are applied but pretty soft really. Sissoko was a tw*t to have his arm in that position.

Poor, poor game.

David Pleat doubts that it was a penalty. The more I see it, the more shocking I think the decision was.

Never score a hat-trick in a CL semi-final - you're bound to get dropped for the Final
