bestbrother Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 of course its a pen. it was a late tackle with no intent to play the ball. otherwise you are saying anything off the ball is fair game 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 something says to me that Murphy has done that before VAR days and got away with it it's soft obviously but by the letter of the law, it was a penalty because he's stood on the player Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course it's a foul and it's obviously a 100% a penalty by the rules. But common sense just says that a penalty seems way too a disproportionate punishment for that kind of thing, But I don't think you can ever really change the rules for it being something else.

Not sure about Europe, but in English games I'd say from when I started watching football up to sometime around 2010 it was an unwritten rule that you didn't get penalties for a goalie taking out a striker after they got their shot away, or a defender doing the same to a crosser etc. Similarly small fouls that would be given outside the box were not given inside the box. Now you can take the approach that rules are rules and defenders should simply not foul and have no sympathy if they do. Personally I prefer the old way. But as long as the rules are clear and implementation of them are clear then you can't really complain if a penalty is given against you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
