Thiago Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 As I said elsewhere, still crazy to me that VAR won't think to involve itself at Stamford Bridge but will chirp up when Wood scores the most Wood goal possible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
r0cafella Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 Was a stone wall penalty weather he was looking for it or not is irrelevant. Sa didn’t get the ball and got the man. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 On 09/04/2022 at 08:40, The Butcher said: There would have been some right fewm on here had Harry Kane done the same last week. Aye, it's a pen, but I still don't like. I know it's a massive part of the game now, the cheating, diving, gamesmanship and all that. It’s a penalty and if Wood doesn’t go down like he does, he doesn’t get it. If he hurdles him it’s likely a goal-kick, if keeper doesn’t come out and slides in, there’s a chance of a shot at goal.

prefabtoon Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 It was karma after woods 1st goal was ruled offside. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 Thought it was a stonewaller of a penalty. He doesn't have to try and hurdle the challenge if the keeper comes flying out like that imo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abacus Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 You're allowed to draw a foul. There's nothing even unsportsmanlike about it, it's just another way of beating your opponent. Grealish did it all the time for Villa. I was chuffed for Wood - had a few decent touches prior to that too. He does seem better playing it on the deck than as a header-merchant.

It's being discussed because some people don't want to give Wood any credit for getting it. Simple as that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simple as that. Agree. Two other things to note: As soon as Joelinton breaks into space Wood sprints to get on the shoulder of the defender. It is a well timed pass and run that takes out the defender and draws SA into a challenge. Wood has had an indifferent start but had some good moments on Friday.

LFEE Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 54 minutes ago, ManDoon said: Genuinely don’t see any argument how that’s not a pen. The ball is past the keeper and he’s swept his legs. It looked more dramatic but if he hurdles it, he loses any chance of getting the ball. It’s all about who gets there first. And he got there. Pen every single day of the week. Because he doesn’t have to hurdle anything. He stopped running to time collision and dragged his leg along the grass ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he tripped him it’s a penalty but he engineered the contact with unnatural movement. Anyway the games gone with stuff like this it seems unfortunately.

Pata Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 It's a pen and he did what is expected from a striker in 2022 but it's still very much a dive/engineered foul and I hate penalties like that. Nothing to do with anyone hating on Wood. This place has a history for closing their eyes if it's one of you doing it, most were perfectly fine with Kane and Sterling diving all over the place during the Euros.
