Nice finish by Diaz to level it. Open game with Liverpool looking shaky.

ShamoBuc · 19-08-2023 02:36PM

Liverpool actually get a penalty. Poor defending. 2-1 at the second attempt.

Bournemouth players just stand there as Salahs penalty is saved and then he slots it in, very poor.

I don't know why Liverpool keep Salah on penalty duties. He's awful at them, got lucky with the rebound today back into his path and couldn't possibly miss.

Brighton will fund themselves for the next 20 years whenever they sell Mitoma and Ferguson.

Mitoma is a monster.

He's only been found out in the last year, but I've never trusted him despite his record previously.

Ridiculous dive by Szoboszlai, legs flying in the air. Football is not a non-contact sport, yet he went down like he was shot after the lightest of light touches.

StringerBell · 19-08-2023 03:08PM

Would assume we will see an apology from PGMOL to Bournemouth after this game for that decision and another round of officials getting stood down?

ShamoBuc · 19-08-2023 03:10PM

2 fast second half goals have surely wrapped it up for Brighton.

namloc1980 · 19-08-2023 03:18PM

Brighton are a super team to watch. Great football.

SlickRic · 19-08-2023 03:19PM

The studs don't even touch him.

KH25 · 19-08-2023 03:20PM

That is not a red, and I’m not a Liverpool fan. Yellow at best.

FluffPiece · 19-08-2023 03:21PM

**** off ref with that shite....

TitianGerm · 19-08-2023 03:22PM

There'll be a red in virtually every game if that's the bar your setting. Yes stids are up but there's no force in the movement and the studs barely touch the opponent.

ShamoBuc · 19-08-2023 03:23PM

Jota gets Liverpools 3rd.

Never a red either.

SlickRic · 19-08-2023 03:23PM

Referees in this league are just awful. It can't be said enough.

The key is they hit the sides of each other's feet. It was ridiculous.

FluffPiece · 19-08-2023 03:25PM

Yeah, that card either needs to be overturned or the foul/punishment consistent which will result in multiple cards each week. Fecking nuts decision.

Both teams in the Liverpool-Bournemouth could argue that they have had big 50/50 decisions go against them. I'd say neither manager will be happy at FT with the referee.

It's a shame they make themselves the talking point.

FluffPiece · 19-08-2023 03:28PM

There will be a game later today that will have a bad tackle and it'll be punished as a simple yellow, **** these refs and the inconsistency of it all. Maybe they simply won't be selected for matches next week as a punishment :/
