European Leagues.

There's a sensor in the ball apparently, that's why it was so quick

[Dag Dog]

Real Madrid find a way...

[armaghniac]

Would a retake not be a better rule ?

it would, since it was accidental.

[nrico2006]

Nothing wrong with that penalty. Retaking it wouldn't even be necessary.

[gallsman]

Why should he be allowed retake it? "It was an accident" doesn't really cut the mustard.

Why do you definitively say there was nothing wrong with it? He's not allowed touch it twice. If he did, then it's a foul.

Arteta the miserable p***k couldn't even give Tierney 90mins

Why would he give a token 90 minutes to a player clearly not in his plans?

He got 80 mins and Martinelli came on to get minutes in coming back from injury take a day off

Watching that game last night it was so refreshing to see a ref letting things go and telling players to get up. Far more enjoyable than a premier league game.

The same way a goalkeeper is not allowed off his line, and deliberately does so, that infraction results in a retake.

Quarter final line up

PSG v Aston Villa
Real Madrid v Arsenal
Inter Milan v Bayern Munich
Barcelona v Borussia Dortmund

Some great games.
I'd be happy to see anyone bar Real or Arsenal to win the tournament.

Because Celtic etc.

That only applies if the penalty is missed. If it goes in, the attacker isn't asked to take it again.

Good to see Athletico out also, they over the years would have been a negative team to watch, I think they have improved but going on past games I've watched they have been great at the dark arts..

Surely the burden of proof should be the other way around? They should have to be absolutely certain he touched it twice , or else it was a goal. Nobody would have said a word if it was allowed to stand

[Look-Up!]

VAR is a bit of a joke at this stage, making it up as they go along. I cannot see how that could be ruled as a double touch. Clear and obvious me hole. If it takes more than 10 seconds to decide, it's not clear and obvious.
