1. ok.

2. I think it was very obviously not a penalty. Not sure what he was thinking tbh. He must’ve really wanted to push the marotta league conspiracy or something 🤣🤣

3. Remember the Sommer incident which led to the penalty awarded to Fiorentina?

   I see no difference here

   The ref decision is justified

4. If a tackle comes through the back of a player anywhere else on the field like this it is considered a late tackle. A free kick would be given. It’s justified to me.

5. They can repeat a lie as much as they want, it’s still a lie. But even if it would be otherwise — 14, 16 points ahead — who gives a shit?

6. Need to investigate further to check if there is some under table deal going on.
