Gazza_8 233 Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 I was saying to my dad there "why is Benayoun playing, he's pish!" and then he goes and plays that ball through to Torres. Great goal! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gribz 826 Posted April 30, 2008 Author Share Posted April 30, 2008 Unbelievable stuff! Essien's goal should have been allowed so the penalty was justice. Not sure about Hyppia's pen, Andy Gray thought it was but I thought he went over far too easy. Taking Torres off is baffling unless he was injured. Well done Frank, that must have been difficult! What a final - Man Utd v Chelsea!!! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAUREN.L 0 Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 I think it was off side!! Drogba was in front of the keeper he culdn't see so off side!! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazza_8 233 Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 Missed the 1st half but the 2nd half and ET periods were fantastic! Drogba was interfering with play because he was stood about 2 yards in front of Reina therefore blocking his sight of the ball. I felt it was a definate penalty although when it was given I thought the ref had just given it becuase of the offside decision a few seconds earlier. Why Torres got hauled off is beyond belief and I reckon that decision could cost him his job. Terrible decision by him! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ibroxian Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 WoW! 3-2. Shame it was not on BBC. Chuffed for Frank Lamps after the week he's had. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gribz 826 Posted May 1, 2008 Author Share Posted May 1, 2008 I dont think it was offside as nobody was interferring with play. Nobody was ever getting in the way or stopping that shot therefore it should have stood. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazza_8 233 Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 I dont think it was offside as nobody was interferring with play. Nobody was ever getting in the way or stopping that shot therefore it should have stood. But surely Drogba standing in front of Reina and blocking his view of the ball is interfering with play? We're not talking 12 yards out here Gribz, Drogba was about 2 or 3 yards from the goal line. I think Reina would've saved it if Drogba wasn't there. The shot wasn't right in the corner, far from it and Reina only dived once Drogba moved out the way/when he got a sight of the ball. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its this stupid rule where sometimes it would be given and sometimes its not. Under old rules then 4 Chelsea players were offside but I agreed with Andy Gray that Drogba wasnt going for it and wasnt restricting the keeper and the ball was goal bound what ever. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
