Match Threads Southampton vs Spurs - Match Thread - Day 2

[theShiznit]

Hugo came off his line...

Take it again

 

[Rout-Ledge]

VAR is dogshit

The problem here is the handball rule. VAR is just applying a bad rule correctly in this case.

 

[Phantom]

Ludicrous decision, how can he avoid it?

 

[VoteMe4Prez]

This has just ruined the game. Absolutely disgusting

 

[Huddlestone22]

Just so silly. Smack the ball at someone's arm and it's a penalty?

 

[thefierycamel]

VAR can check that but can't ask the ref to take another look at that rubbish Romeu challenge about 5 minutes in? Fucking useless system

 

[Chimbo!]

That’s not a pen, according to the law.

 

[Rocksuperstar]

So there's no time limit on how long to play on for? Reckon we might have a case for Pedro Mendes goal to stand against United?

 

[Syn_13]

All I can say is that I'm glad we were winning by a few already. I'd be furious otherwise.

 

[StockSpur]

just be safe in the knowledge that had it been for spurs, we wouldnt have got that decision ?

 

[RickyVilla]

Harsh pen that

 

[DJS]

Harry Kane.
Magnificent, phenomenal, generational talent.

one of our own.

We just HAVE to get a team that he deserves or would be such a football tradegy for spurs!

 

[LeSoupeKitchen]

It was universally popular that those werent given last year.

 

[WiganSpur]

How is that a pen ffs

 

[lennon180]

Absolutely pathetic. Infuriating nonsense.

 

[Rob]

The referee is a moron to give that.

Of course he isn't. It's an absolutely correct decision based on the rule.

The rule is stupid but it's clear what it is.

Ball to hand is a pen now. Everyone knows it.

 

[idontgetit]

VAR has become utterly toxic and it's because of dog shit rules.

 

[freeeki]

Commentators on the side I’m watching explaining the latest rules on handball and saying that shouldn’t have been given.

There should be comeback on refs for this nonsense when they’ve checked the monitor and still got it wrong.

 

[RichieS]

Who could have seen this coming after that first half.

This match has been a prime example of why whinging during the game is futile. If we all just supported the team until the fat lady sung, everyone would have a much nicer time.

 

[IamSpurtacus]

The handball law now is a joke
