Is Torres allowed to play tonight?

 

Edit: He is.

 

Was there some reason he might not be, out of interest?

 

I thought he might not be allowed to play in the CL after having played for Liverpool in the Europa League before in the same season.

That used to be the case. I remember Woodgate being unavailable for us in the Champions League after he'd played for Leeds in the UEFA Cup in the same season.

Surely a Chelsea player must be booked soon for running off with the ball after conceding a free kick.

Also, a word about the ref.  Didn't book Ramos for a bodycheck and didn't give a pen against Dawson but otherwise excellent refereeing.  Best I've seen this season either in league or in Europe.

 

Nice comments.  I though the referee was excellent too.  Could have given the PK against Dawson, but I understand why he didn't - intent to handle etc distance from the shot, speed of shot etc.  Thought he did a good job with early cards that had the right effect on the players (except for crouchy who didn't learn).

 

Ramos body check was very sly. Played it like he barely moved into Bale's path but he knew exactly what he was doing. Master class on how to get away with it.
