The goal was insane. The elbow incident should have indeed been punished. Mou was just being Mou. Lewa and Sterling's dive I haven't seen, but I wouldn't be surprised if they were indeed ridiculous incidents.

Sterlings wasn't a dive, he kicked the turf and the incompetent ref gave the pen. The touchline/unnecessary ref should've said something. I'm glad we got it because we would've struggled to reach the 6 goals we desperately needed to put away Shaktahr

And if you think Sterling deserved to own up to that, then you're crazy. You never see defenders tell the ref "that's a pen, I got him" on fouls not called in the box.

Ref was poor, simple as that.

I think I'd actually give a shit if it had any effect on the game whatsoever.

As it stands it's utter pointless. They were battered from the first minute to the last and a dodgy penalty decision changes nothing.

Happened before that players said it wasn't a pen and missed on purpose, this was the perfect moment for Sterling to get a more positive image imo. Didn't matter if you got another goal like you said.

If you made a shitty compilation of every player doing that and play it to the tune of Despacito, the video would be 90 seconds long with every replay happening 5 different times.

I agree it would have helped his image. But the Sun's headline would have been something like "Gun Crazy Snake thinks he's too good to accept a penalty from UEFA official"

Seen it by now, but ty for posting, it really was ridiculous ffs
