       Great work at the end in not falling for that abysmal attempt at
       diving by Saka.

       Magnificent all night from Nyberg.  Superb game management.
       Early booking for Bayern defender Davies set the tone.  Bayern
       penalty called on pitch, spot on.  Kane yellow just about right
       as wasn’t a lot in it despite the naughty look round before
       perhaps.
       Havertz dive embarrassing near the end, actually should have
       been booked it was that bad.
       Then at the death, Saka with an appalling act of self sabotage,
       an open goal and instead feigns injury.  Shoves his right leg
       out and boots Neuer on the leg.
       Kudos though to the referee here for not falling for it.  Saka
       will try it again and again, referees must be this strong!  As
       for the fake hobbling at the end, did he suddenly forget it when
       he started harassing the referee?  How bizarre!!

       Makes me sad as an arsenal fan watching Saka do that at the end
       as he is a great player, and had a great chance to score.
       Thought Nyberg was very good and consistent throughout. He
       certainly looks like a top ref in the making.

       Of course because Saka is English he isn’t called out for
       blatant simulation. Neuer stopped, he’s allowed to hold his
       ground, he isn’t obliged to move out of the way and Saka
       initiated the contact in an attempt to deceive the referee.

       Was watching the other game (superb performance by the
       officials!) but saw the Saka clip and it is never a penalty, so
       a great decision not to fall for the blatant attempt at Diving.

       I think he has quite evidently been called out for it.

       Thought the yellow early on for Davies? Was harsh but from then
       on was a masterclass with an outstanding decision at the end
       under pressure.
       Wasn’t impressed when I saw him in a group stage game earlier in
       the season but was excellent tonight

       On here perhaps but the “experts” on TNT Sports are falling over
       themselves with faux outrage. Their inane, uninformed and biased
       rambling does nothing to improve the standing of match
       officials.

       Is that the same Saka who missed the recent England games
       through “injury” but made a miraculous recovery for Arsenals
       game v Man City? If so tonight was clearly not his first case of
       simulation

       Did anyone see the incident Tuchel is referring to here?
       Gabriel picked up a goal kick after the Ref had blown the
       whistle.
       According to Tuchel the Ref said it was a childish mistake and
       won't give such a penalty in the CL quarter final.
