I thought it should have been a red. He didn't retaliate once, he smacked him in the chest about four times.

Gutted for Juventus, hope we get Real and beat them again.

Heart break for Juve but have to say that it was a penalty and Buffon losing the plot was totally unprofessional, whether he would have saved Ronaldo's penalty, and spared us the ridiculous shirt off celebration, we'll never know.

Was a pen for sure, but it did look like Vasquez had messed up a bit beforehand, Buffon might have saved any chance. But by such tiny margins matches are won. Was amazing scenes.

Buffon was never saving Ronaldo’s penalty. You don’t save those.

Woke up this morning to the news that he has claimed all 3 of my Sunday morning league career goals.
Fuming!!

That made me chuckle, haha.

In all seriousness though, I think it's extremely selfish of Kane to claim a goal from his own team mate to try and get an individual award.

I wonder how Christian Eriksen feels about it.

Went to watch Runcorn Town beat Irlam 2-0 tonight; stunning brace from Harry Kane.
I remember watching Kane in the Alty's reserves. He wasn't terrible IIRC, but he wasn't going to be up to playing Conference North football.

Incidentally, the Pavillions is one of my favourite grounds at that level, I really feel that it is very representative pf the town in general.

Eriksen said he was quite happy for Kane to have it, it did appear to brush his head.

If Kane touched the ball, which I'm still not convinced he did, then he is offside.

He was offside without touching the ball as he made a deliberate attempt to play it. So he tells us. :D

Liverpool to play Roma in the Champions league semi. I have some happy memories of us playing the past, hope they are repeated. Everyone saying we are lucky to get the team that just knocked out Barcelona as opposed to Real Madrid who just scraped through against Juventus seems odd though.

Definitely, and the second leg away. That was some atmosphere when they got Barca back to the Stadio Olimpico...

Very true!

No; *K*ane, not *S*ane. Sane is always offside. Its rule one in the UEFA Referee's Manual.

Eh? I said Kane.

In the first leg, I don't think he was offside and his goal should have stood. However, Sané was offside in the second leg because Milner did not deliberately play the ball.

Sane was not offside. He was not in an offside position when the ball was last played forward by a Manchester City player (when the ball came in from outside the box by de Bruyne). You have to work backwards. Did Milner deliberately play the ball? No. Okay then, did Karius deliberately play the ball? No, because a goalkeeper making a save doesn’t count. Okay then, then did de Bruyne deliberately play the ball? Yes. That’s the last time the ball was deliberately played according to the offside law and nobody was offside.

Kane was offside against Liverpool because he was in an offside position when the through pass was made - the last time the ball was deliberately played, it was played forward by a Spurs player.

Chelsea already on the beach and slapping on the sun lotion, it seems...

We NEED to get something today. Squeaky-bum time!

Just makes our game even more of a "must win"!

Absolutely, especially with Palace playing Brighton at home which is one of those weird 'derbies'.

Leeds lost to Villa last night 1-0. Our season is of course over but there were a number of positives, our young keeper being Man of the Match and another youngster Tom Pearce putting in a fantastic debut performance at LB. Our homegrown talent well and truly showed up our lightweight, diving, mercenary 'experienced pro's' last night, the youngsters attitudes and performances all being exemplary. Can't wait for the summer clear-out.

A number of Leeds fans seem to want Heckingbottom out, but he's playing with a dud hand. It's Victor Orta, our Director of Football who signed a load of rubbish last summer who needs the chop instead.

Edit: just finished Saints 2 Chelsea 3. Saints must be gutted.

Ah right, thanks for the explanation. :)

Looks like extra carricular training needs to be organised at Turf Moor. How to fill in a passport application. How to check in for a flight. A smattering of a few foreign languages wouldn't go amiss either.

Oldham 1-1 Gillingham

Oldham took 1-0 lead at half time thanks to duck (Nazon) which look like going be massive win for Latics until left few mins when Latics player Moimbé got sent off for unknown reason in result Gill got penalty and score from it. This result leave Oldham on 20th places and only point clear of Rochdale who sit in 21st place and both of them will meet on Tuesday night at Spotland, whoever wins that will boost they chances of avoid relegation and if finishes draw then Oldham will probably need to beat AFC Wimbledon next Saturday.

Hyde United 0....Skelmersdale United 0

Hyde chose today to produce one of their worst examples of attempting to hold onto a top-two spot against a side that they had no trouble in beating earlier in the season in the away fixture. Of their 20 home matches this season, they have won 16 and now drawn the other 4.

Scarborough Athletic who started the day in third place had a comfortable 4-0 home win over Brighouse Town and now occupy the second place, a point clear of Hyde, on level matches played.

Went to Maidenhead today to see Dover Athletic lose 3-2 to a last minute deflected goal.

Nothing good about the day, apart from the beers and two winning 387’a.

Another solid and reassuring performance from Liverpool today. Mo Salah scored his 30th league goal of the season (40th overall) in a 3-0 win, with the other goals coming from Sadio Mané and Roberto Firmino respectively.

In his post match interview, Jordan Henderson said Salah was going to claim Firmino and Mané's goals as well. :lol:
