***TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR vs Brentford OMT***

[Baleforce]

I'd want the pen for that, he took his leg away.

A Sonny classic that. Deadly in both boxes.

 

[Spoonman]

Joke. The guys puts his left foot down before deciding to fall over.

 

[Hotshot-Tottenham]

That is a disgusting, awful decision.

Completely against what the game is about.

 

[Bedfordspurs]

He even held the wrong ankle afterwards

 

[Mosquito_Coasting]

Pen in this day and age but never should be.

 

[90291Spur]

Stupid from Son.

What, running?

 

[monkeybarry]

I usually support VAR, but how long did it take to get to that decision?!

 

[Robbo]

That's not a pen

 

[elltrev]

When did the rule become that ANY contact below the waist was a foul?

 

[SubZero]

Who tripped who, just as much the other way. What a joke.

 

[monkeybarry]

Pen in this day and age but never should be.

Basically a non contact sport now.

 

[Robbo]

Standard decision time for VAR

better to get it right, doesn't really matter how long it takes as the time will get added back on

 

[Hotshot-Tottenham]

I can’t believe what I’ve seen there. Astonishing decision.

Yeh but I would expect my player to be more subtle and go down at contact and hold the right ankle

 

[Hashegotthesackyet?]

How ever many times I watch that it ain’t a penalty and that’s with no bias

 

[monkeybarry]

The rule is now "contact with consequence".
Apparently that consequence includes delayed reactions....

 

[Robbo]

But was it right, though?

 

[SpurMeUp]

Just stupid. Wouldn't be a foul in normal play, as its just a brush of boots. But with var, fall over (even after the event) and look for contact in slow mo - if its there pen. Its brick, and var is not doing its job - twice in this game.

 

[Bedfordspurs]

Not sure how people can think it’s not a pen if you kick a players ankle in the box
Kane lived off those
He went down softly
Even held his right ankle which is odd
But it’s a pen
