    Oliver was the difference. Gifted them a draw. But I’ll take it.

      I will never take that. I am furious. It’s fucking 2022 all over again. Surprised they didn’t let the game run until they scored a winner.

        Yep. Robbed then and robbed now of the chance to prove you can take down the rotten cheating powerhouse that is Man City.

        I thought it was for the kicking of the ball away after the whistle, despite none of the commentators saying so. I mean, it’s a bullshit call to dish out a red for that in the last minute of the half, but that seems par for the course, doesn’t it?

          Well Jon Champion did shed some light and he said the communication he heard between VAR and Oliver was that the card was for the push and not for kicking it the ball. They’re just covering their tracks at this point
