Chelsea v Liverpool : Carabao Cup Final

We had a similar one ruled out against Burnley didn’t we? At least it’s consistent.
 
Silva really is an excellent defender, didn’t think he’d be able to hack it week in week out in the PL.
 
Van Dijk is just standing there, isn’t he? If he makes an active movement to impede the defender I could somewhat understand it but he doesn’t do anything really. Blocking has been a thing since forever on corners.

He's clearly blocking him, just like Maguire was blocking the Burnley player the other week. IT's the right decision.

He wraps him up

Yeah it has, but he’s stood offside. If he’s wrestling with one of their defenders, he’s interfering with the play. Otherwise James would have a free run at Mane.
 
That is a great decision. I wasn’t aware the referee and VAR had the capacity to give anything against Liverpool. Excellent and correct decision.

I know I'm absolutely shocked a decision actually went against them. I thought only we were susceptible to that

Can't stand Lukaku, Werner is useless

Liverpool are winning it
 
He wraps him up
If he does I can understand. Need to see it again, his arm did perhaps move a bit but that was very light then. No one would’ve batted an eyelid before VAR was around.
 
Goal was rightly disallowed, van Dijk interfered with James who would've contested Mane at the back post. Same reason Varane's goal against Burnley was correctly ruled out.
 
This is set up for Lukaku to score the winner right at the end and cue the ‘he’s back’ fanfare

Tylers got the soundbite lined up ready.

“Wrestling” come on :lol:
