Manchester City v Arsenal - Anthony Taylor (VAR: John Brooks)

hi,
quiet first half for team ref - perhaps the YC for mosquera was
a little harsh [emoji53]
potential handball when ball brushed gabriel's arm not given -
probably correctly - even though the ball then deflected onto
the post [emoji15]
pep and arteta both quite well behaved - so far [emoji4]
regards,
gnr

Did I imagine a hair pull by Gabriel on Haaland ? No RC and same
VAR ( John Brooks ) as the Martinez one

That is as clear a red card as you can ever ever see

That’s an absolutely horrible error.
I can’t believe he’s given a yellow.
Shocking from Taylor and brooks

Oh dear…. I think Gabriel should be off for that poor attempt at
a head butt.
Both sides acting like petulant kids in a rich man’s world.

How Gabriel is not walking there is beyond me. And people wonder
why referee's have zero trust and credibility from most in the
game!

Clear red card offence, yet the rules don’t get applied because
it’s a big game

Taylor and Brooks have let the refereeing world down there.
It’s a clear act of Violent Conduct. Haaland does not have to go
to ground in order for a red card to be issued.
Terrible.
