Goals and Key Highlights
Salah penalty 75’ (1 - 0)
Salah 90’ +7 (2 - 0)
Never going to hear the end of this Konate thing… Not a booking for me, all the hype about it is just contextual to the match IMO.
If no double yellow for Young and no earlier booking for Konate, nobody would have been claiming that the later foul was a yellow.
Can’t say I feel sorry for Ashley Young, but you should know you can’t make challenges like that when you’re on a yellow. Overall, bit of a sloppy first half when attacking. The last pass just never really clicked. Let’s hope for a better 45min coming up.
Mo really has quite the arsenal of passes in him
Talk about a manager stamping their style on a team, this feels like nothing more than all those Dyche Burnley games.
Surely that’s a penalty
