as wombat said, sometimes the refs dont call anything unless the player goes down. there is 0 incentive for a player to try to play through contact or fouls, if anything there's negative incentive in doing that because the refs might not call anything and you lose your advantage.

if there was something like a delayed penalty in hockey (inside the box), maybe you'd see more players play through it instead of going down and taking the sure penalty.

Yeah as much as I hate this easy falling down from players I have to agree with the others: I have seen so many times how a honest player did not fall down after a foul and did not get a penalty awarded then for a clear foul (even with VAR).

Referees are to be blamed for all this falling down

I mean... I mostly agree with you, but only because these games are scheduled for August. The UK looks to be about a month behind the rest of Europe (including Spain), so at the start of August they can be expected to be slightly ahead of where we are at now. RM is travelling around the country playing games in other cities, so travelling to Manchester shouldn't be a problem in August.

But if it were now, I would side with them. I think it's quite mad that Spain is opening the borders to Brits already. Desperate to salvage what we can from the tourist season.

That is the only issue i have with what Real Madrid are saying here. If it is that unsafe why is the tourism board allowing Brits to go to Spain now? We have cricketers coming in from West Indes ready to play cricket, surely Real Madrid in for 24 hours isn't going to be that much of a risk....or is it because they are losing and no Ramos xD

Exeter just about over came colchester after extra time. That sounds like it would have been a great game, shame there was no one there to watch it. We're going to Wembley! And it's more fun than that for me because we are playing Northampton and one of my mates from uni is from Northampton and a big Town fan. So we can get in a little bit of banter in the next few weeks.

edit: Both finalist came back from first leg losses. Exciting stuff.

Yeah, I agree with what you guys were saying about it not been Pogbas fault that the current system kind of encourages diving if there is a foul because there's little benefit from staying up and penalties often aren't given unless you go down. I like the idea of giving more penalties after the play has been stopped. If you have the chance to score if you stay on your feet knowing it will go back to a penalty if you miss it will incentivise players to keep going and try and score anyway. Maybe I was a bit harsh on Pogba, but I really don't like that kind of diving.

So Sarri might become the first Juve coach in a decade? to not win the league title (I know chances are still low but who knows) and I read today that Juve are interested in Jorginho lol.

Just sack that guy

This one could be a pretty serious one. Knee injury at 32 years of age doesn't have the safest of rings to it.

Might as well cancel the season. Texas is one of the out of control states as well as Florida where the tournament is to be held.



Also if Liverpool win this game, and Chelsea win tomorrow Liverpool take the title, correct?
