Yes, it is.
And in the modern days, as we all know, you're looking at a situation in slow motion.
It's going to be given.
And he was given.
But instead of arguing with this right now, and was it a penalty or not a penalty, that could have been avoided and we can clearly see the contact here.
To be fair, I got some like that where I knew I couldn't get the ball, I just had to beat the keeper to the spot.
If you beat the keeper to the spot, like he did, obviously him coming and raising his leg was going to make it an issue.
Look, whatever it is, slow motion, we're always going to enhance what's happening.
The goalkeeper's going to have to go.
Maybe he thinks he's going to chip it, so he's preparing something or whatever it is.
Bottom line, you can't say you didn't touch him.
You did.
Well, first and foremost, I'm not the ref, but second of all, I can understand what he's doing.
Like, I've been a coach, you come out and you're not going to say it's going to be a penalty.
Few coaches come out and say, I agree with the ref, he was right and everything.
But again, if I was a player in that dressing room, if I was the manager, we got done on the corner.
you shouldn't be in this type of situation so there is contact and I'm strong enough to bring the guy down and I understand the frustration fully but again if you watch the replay bang
contact.
I don't agree with the manner that things are going right now.
Everything in slow motion look always more than what it is.
