There's a reason why 12-6 elbows are illegal in UFC. I don't think they should be in football if they're not allowed in MMA. I wouldn't complain if he was red carded for that.

Fernandinho always striked me as a bit of a hot head.

All managers in the PL top 6 get heat for their away form in big games in isolation. When put up against each other there's probably nothing wrong with Pep's record at all

Yep, it absolutely astounds me when people state that we are "better" without Kane based on half a dozen games he missed earlier this season. We simply adapt to a more counter attacking style when he is unavailable and we are lucky to have somebody like Son who can pull it off.

Kane is in the top 5-8 players in the world FFS.

The counter attacking football will help against Pep if we can defend like that again.. The number of times he got undone by counter attacks at Bayern... the most frustrating thing to watch. 80% possession, 0-1

Clutch from Son. Great result for Spurs, gives them a fighting chance in the 2nd leg.

Hopefully creates a little bit more pressure for the City players to carry over the next week, and gives Spurs confidence going into the next 2 games v City (particularly the league!) that they can get a result.

Great result for Spurs but still want City to get through. More games if they do, more likely to drop points in the league.

The elbow was not heavy contact but it's still not on and probably should have seen red.

VAR is all over the shop. Reviewed all kinds of random s**t in our game. I thought it was only coming in to do major calls. Instead it's microanalying every single moment in every game.

It's a worry.

you'd only be doing it if like Fernandinho you're trying to get away with it and if that's the case you would try and not make it too obvious
then it's a bit pointless to barely hit him. the fall to the floor probably hurt more.
