Watch it again dude, it was the attackers chest.
-
ah…it does appear that's what happened.

I still can't understand that there can be any doubt. It can only be a result of the circumstances of the game, the drama, that has blinded people to what actually happened. The defender bowls over the player from behind, when the attacking player is facing the goal mouth with a clear goal scoring opportunity. It's a free kick all over the park and a blatant pen in the box. The only debate should be about if the defender should have been sent off for the challenge, or why he wasn't yellow-carded.
You can find this:
"Where a player commits an offence against an opponent within their own penalty area which denies an opponent an obvious goal-scoring opportunity and the referee awards a penalty kick, the offending player is cautioned if the offence was an attempt to play the ball; in all other circumstances (e.g. holding, pulling, pushing, no possibility to play the ball etc.) the offending player must be sent off"."Soft pen" has become a term people use when a penalty is awarded that they'd rather wasn't (I should know, I've done it myself
). -
Not to mention the defender himself said it was worthy of a penalty.

Don't expect to learn anything from the commentator
Viewing only.

That’s my highlight of the season too
Rafa sounds serious about staying put, saying he wants us in the top 8 next season, here hoping the Jabba the owner puts his hands in his pocket this summer.

Is this Liverpools year? Definitely Salah's year. Sticking it to his old club too.
-
Understand all that but come on, Liverpool is flying and hunger, confidence and momentum are huge intangibles.

4-0…love this front three for liverpool.

Should be an interesting second leg for sure.
in Rome. Liverpool should be clever enough to not overestimate tonight's result.
