Piece of shit Clattenburg. Never a yellow card.

Poor Licht.

 

[GordoDeCentral]

agreed, that was a really harsh yellow, not sure what licht was supposed to do in that situation

Licht & Vidal

 

[Klin]

Is that when he ran circles around our right side?

 

[Yamen]

yep. I think it was that very moment. Licht loses his temper quick and needs to calm down. The way he stares at refs is always provoking.

Question: If that block by Dante on Licht was done outside the box, say near the byline, would it been given a freekick?

 

[adRHCP]

No I don't think so, IMHO Licht ran to Dante. And was never a foul, but neither a dive. He just provoked it.

 

[baggio]

It was just body momentum. Shouldn't have been a card. Im not sure I saw it, but Licht probably asked for a Pk which to the referee angry. Just a thought. May not be true coz I missed his reaction when he fell.

Probably, that happens all the time. It's a different set of rules inside the area.

Similar to obstruction, it seems defenders are allowed to do that when running the ball out of play. If you did that in the midfield it'd be a freekick.

There are quite a few unwritten rules to football.

 

[K.O.]

Exactly.

In any case, penalty or not, the yellow card for diving was just ridiculous. We should appeal the yellow card and expect to win it.

Licht & Vidal

our very best.

Exactly.

It was more a case of his reputation preceding him. Clattenburg knows all about Lichtsteiner, especially after the Celtic game. Lichtsteiner did make a meal of it, but there was obvious contact.

Obvious yellow card for trying to sell a penalty. Licht was the one who ran into Bayern defender and tried to get a penalty out of it with a ridiculous spin. The replays show it quite clearly. Ref had every right to show him a yellow there. You may not like it, you may even talk about "penalty on Lichtsteiner" but this won't change the facts. He even jumped right before "hitting" the defender.

Obviously I expect people to still claim it wasn't a yellow .

[JuveJay]

Those saying it was a penalty are wrong, but there is nothing to suggest simply playing on wasn't the right course of action.

 

[radekas]

There is also nothing to suggest that the ref had no right to show a yellow card. It was his decision, he could have let it go or punish the player. He chose the latter and noone should be mad. He did the same to the Bayern player a few minutes later.

The point is there is absolutely nothing scandalous in the card and some people are trying to portray it as a terrible decision.

Well if the vid is not enough I don't expect anything to change the minds of some people here, therefore please continue the holy crusade against the ref.

 

[YasoR17]

Not a dive, not a yellow card and the ref was shit.

 

[radekas]

you forgot about the penalty

 

[YasoR17]

Are you retarded?
