Champions League 16th/17th *Spoilers*

Fab, pathetic.

With regards to the pushing the player on the floor for nothing - that is.

Did you watch the replay again? Porto player purposely arsing around with the ball which should have been left for the Arsenal corner, Fab touched him and he dived to the floor like he'd been smacked in the face with a brick. Moments later he came in with a stupid tackle knocking Fab over.

Projectile thrown at Fabregas also. Porto should be fined after this match they've acted appallingly and obviously can't control their fans either.

It wasn't a push strong enough to warrant the Porto player to suddenly lose control of his legs and fall to the ground in a heap that suggested he was hit by a car and not a push in the lower back.

Are you an Arsenal fan by any chance?
 
Love it. More refs should allow play to start like that. So boring watching play held up for 2 or 3 minutes while players get back in to position.

Agreed. It takes the whole point of having the advantage away when the referee waits until a wall is formed. A few years ago Giggs was booked for something similar. :/
 
Really frustrating to watch a diving cheating dirty team like porto cant wait the see the scum knocked out.

Totally agree with the quick free kicks, it makes the game much more exciting to watch. It was very quick thinking by Porto and Fabianski is an absolute idiot for just turning his back in a situation like that. You can tell how inexperienced he is solely on his performance tonight. He's reminded me of Mannone against Standard Liege in September, except after that game Mannone seemed to get a little bit better each game, still not a good goalkeeper by any stretch of the imagination though.
 
Been a 50-50 game tonight. Arsenal scored theirs from the set piece, Porto were gifted both of their goals, both at the expense of a **** poor keeper as well... Should have been a penalty to Rosicky earlier, the refereeing standard has been terrible and Porto have played incredibly dirty.

I'm still annoyed at the projectile thrown at Fabregas when he was taking the corner. What kind of fan would throw something that could injure or even kill a player if it's thrown from such a height up in the stands? Porto should be fined, just for that incident alone.
