@ Rollins.....Lets wait for the appeal to be heard, hata Nani saw nothing wrong with the tackle. Give us instances where players have been sent off under similar circumtances.

Huyu Foy amezoea, remember last season's FA Cup q/final between Arsenal and Man Utd

"...Scholes committed to a two-footed tackle on Marouane Chamakh beyond the 90 minutes, booked by referee Chris Foy for his challenge and was then given a talking to after another poor tackle minutes later....."

Inconsistency, in one instance a player clearly brings an opponent down but only gets a yellow card yet in another one a player not only wins the ball but also avoids contact but is sent of because of what might have happened. Chris Foy should be relegated to lower leagues.

"Replays showed that Kompany had dived in with two feet, which is an illegal offence and according to the laws of the game is punishable with a red or yellow card, depending on how much 'excessive force' has been used.

However, the Belgium international had looked to be in control of his challenge and he did take the ball cleanly and make virtually no contact with the man, suggesting a lesser punishment may have been possible."

The only thing that made this game interesting was Man City's attempted come back otherwise ref aliharibu game. Kompany won the ball and he didn't catch Nani because he managed to avoid the tackle, nothing wrong with that. In football hakuna "what if", Nani didnt even claim anything....we've seen worse tackles getting away with a yellow card or warning.

@Jus....true the ref was pathetic because he also denied City a penalty after Jones clearly handled the ball. Good goals by Man Utd but very poor officiating. Btw isnt this the same ref who cost Spurs points against Stoke!

@Taz, two footed challenge (read FIFA Law 12 smile ), you have to give it to Nani for avoiding the tackle. But it showed that both Kompany's feet left the ground before the tackle. About Jones, well, there's ball-to-hand.

But again, all these depend on the which side you lean on. There's someone who said United showed their class in keeping possession. I know many will argue, but, we are still the team to beat.


That Kompany dude is an idiot!! He should have given Nani a tackle like a car-crash to put him out for 52 weeks. What a waster!!smile

Compared to kina Giigs and Scholes, Henry is still very young, nice goal though.
