[Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Manchester United *** Official Match Thread ***

[Deleted member 2719]

This is how i feel but how the hell can the ref play on so long after March's goal which was with 20 seconds to go. Utter utter shafted and im gutted.

To be fair, you did have a win/win today.

Owen Hargreaves just said we need to find a away to get something out if these performances. We deserved something against both Chelsea and Man U.

This team is in the brink of something special.

Gutted, the ref needs investigating

How did the game get to 97 mins when there was 5 mins of added time?

We should not let the FA forget about this.

Is the ref from Manchester?

Yes he is.

Kavanagh epitomises why I am falling out of love with football.

I actually wish Man Utd would fvck off and create their super league.

the bloke is a manc, born in manchester ffs ....is it him who needs looking at or the ***** at lancaster gate ....unreal.

Andy Gray saying foul on Shaw same as pen shout for Connolly. No wonder no English refs at the World Cup

And the ref will not review it and withdraw the yellow card.

Why were they taking a corner in the 97th minute when there was 5 added on?

Damn straight! The correct thing to do would have been to blow the whistle straight after the kick off but it's United so they've got to be given a little extra extra time to pull things around.

Of course, we should have been capable of keeping them at bay for a minute or two but...

At times it's just so blatant.

I really hope this is not one of those season where we play brilliant football and not get the results.

After being so close to winning or getting a draw, leaving with nothing is emotionally draining.

So many fouls just as bad as Connolly's shout.

Is that from the laws of the game?

and this from the Guardian - I’ve just watched the build-up to United’s winner again. It’s hard to be sure without a slow-motion replay, but it looks like the ball was out of play before van de Beek won the corner.

It wasn’t........already had a look at that on TV.

It’s the time of the corner that’s pissing me off. Final whistle should’ve gone.

 

[zefarelly]

We were robbed, but ultimately made a few minor mistakes that made the difference

 

[herecomesaregular]

Absolutely loved that game, had it all except a red card. We lost, don't care as this is the way to play football. Oh the drama. We will absolutely smash someone soon. Oh, sorry Newcastle, we already did.

Rob Smyth on the Guardian feed:

GOAL! Brighton 2-2 Man Utd (March 90+5)
Solly March has equalised in the last minute of injury time!

90+7 min Maguire’s header is cleared off the line by March - but they are checking for handball and there’s a bit of a ruck. The final whistle has gone but I think we’re going to have a United penalty!

Full time: Brighton 2-3 Man Utd
That was a bonkers game of football. Some of the Brighton players, Lallana certainly, are effing and jeffing at the referee Chris Kavanagh as he leaves the field. I’m not sure why - Brighton were desperately unlucky, having hit the woodwork five times, but I don’t think they were robbed.

No Rob. There's obviously no way that awarding someone a corner that leads to a penalty two minutes after the last minute of the game is a robbery.

Me for the rest of the day.

 

[Thunder Bolt]

Agreed

But

Every player knows the current laws of the game - why wave your hand at the ball knowing if it touches the ball you’re giving a penalty away?

He wasn’t waving his arm. He was only a couple of feet away, and you try a standing jump without moving your arms.

robbed mate ....although we should/could have been out of sight by then but that hurts to get robbed by them ****ers.
