How when the ball goes on a right angle whilst Carrick falls forward does it look like Carrick took it past Gomes ? Does Carricks foot dislocate into backward positions ?

Anymore rubbish you have to offer on the corrupt officiating of yesterday ?

Wonderful!!!

If they win, the pressure is all on Sporting in Madrid tonight.

Atletico have to put on a show tonight after the humiliation in Santander.
Madrid will get their customary victory meaning there'll only be 4 points in it with El Classico still to come.

Blackburn on top at Ewood Park. McCarthy and Gamst-Pedersen gone close.

I think United came out a different team int he second half and a fightback was always on the cards - penalty or no penalty.

I mean it's one goal out of five isnt it?

I agree.

The evidence to suggest Utd were getting back into the game before the penalty is obvious isn't it ?

No really......

Huge chance tonight for Real to get right back at Barca though, would have been even better if Valencia held on but a draw will do. The Barca v Real will be one of the best this year should the league be this close.

Should be quite a game tonight Atletico v Sporting. Looking forward to it.

Barça were good for a draw at least.

Oh I don't know, they've had at least one result this season that means they should stay up



And as for the Nited penalty...read it in the papers, it was given and converted...there has been plenty (and will be plenty more to come) dodgier pennos than that one by a long, long way.

And as for the argument of getting ball then man, if that happens with a defender and his foot then it is almost always given as a foul and a free kick...what's the difference??

to be fair they need more than that - spurs in many ways typify all that is bad about football today - they way they clocked off and went all 'big time charlie' after winning the coca cola cup last year was a disgrace - Jol is doing a good job a hamburg, Ramos is doing ok in the turnstile of a role that being Real's manager is - while the lily livered, high earning , wag sh&gging, wasters of a team keep getting their coaches the sack whilst not performing consistantly themselves - you get Levy bleating like a lamb about United and Liverpool's conduct over Berbatov and Keane, whilst he chased Ramos like love sick puppies whilse he was still managing Seville.

not to mention harry redknapp's impeccable behaviour in flip-flopping between bitter rivals southampton and portsmouth
