       Not been impressed first half, think he has struggled to control
       the game and Laporte should have had a yellow much earlier than
       he did
       Doesn't feel like he has control of the game and think not
       giving Laporte the yellow early on seems to have caused a few
       tackles from others in frustration which he has then had to give
       yellows for.

       Agreed if Laporte gets booked he doesn’t make that tackle to get
       booked or he does and he’s off

       And now he’s scored...
       Not a good performance from Tierney I’m afraid. He’s been fairly
       consistent in the last few months but he’s been off the boil
       today.

       Cup Final syndrome, not wanting to caution to early and be seen
       to possibly ruin the game, but I think he will reflect and wish
       he did what would have been done in every other game.

       Poor Paul Tierney, what must he have thought when the only goal
       is scored by the person he should have sent off??!!
       Alas we have all been there, but he's a professional official
       and he can't afford to make mistakes like that.

       I am not sure he “must have thought” anything. At the time he
       didn’t feel it was a booking so never gave it. Laporte was
       correctly booked later. Maybe being on a yellow he might not
       have committed the 2nd foul. Who knows?
       Hindsight is a wonderful thing

       Exactly that.  You can only say it is a missed red card if it is
       a second yellow that is incorrectly missed.  The same doesn't
       work when it is a first yellow missed as it would be very
       unlikely that Laporte would have made that challenge had he
       already been on a caution, rather a different player would have
       taken out Moura to stop the attack.

       I agree that both of Laporte's challenges merited a YC, but
       suspect that if he'd been booked for the first one, he'd
       probably have pulled out of the second, given it happened in the
       middle of the park, with enough covering defenders to make it
       unnecessary. While not Mr Tierney's finest moment, hardly in the
       Phil Dowd league for Cup Final Syndrome.

       Well said carter. If it’s in PL Laporte’s first challenge should
       be a YC but when it comes to a final, referee should be more
       cautious about early fouls and try to control the game with
       words instead of cards. Thus the decision made by Tierney is
       totally reasonable. Plus even if he is carded earlier, he
       probably would not make a clumsy challenge on Lucas Moura later,
       so I’m not convinced by the saying “he should be sent off”.
       Overall Paul did a very good game with calmness and authority
       imo.

       Excellent referee Paul Tierney made a crucial in not booking
       Laporte in the first half. Booked in the second half which
       should have led to a red card.
       To rub it in for Spurs, he then scores the winner!
