[Football] Dortmund's Bellingham 'disallowed goal' at Man City

[Change at Barnham]

An absolute howler by the referee of the Man City v Dortmund game.
Bellingham poked the ball past Ederson on the edge of the area as Ederson clattered in to the Dortmund youngster.
Before Bellingham rolled the ball into the empty net the referee mistakenly blew for a free kick for Man City.

The replay showed Bellingham didn't commit any foul, but VAR couldn't be used because the referee had blown his whistle rather than wait a couple of seconds.

This is why VAR is important.

It can't be taken away and needs to be implemented properly. Ref needs dropping for this. Far too convenient that the whistle gets blown IMO, in a game where we are constantly told they are keeping their flags down, playing on etc. I think the ref saw what was coming and couldn't be bothered with the fall out.

I make all these comments, of course, based on this one clip.

This outright cheating from Ederson is what European football and even worse international comps is all about and why I couldn't give a shite about it. It's only on as my son is watching.

Looks okay. No contact with boot.

Just as bad earlier when the penalty was awarded. Rhodri should have been booked for simulation.

Was pleased VAR was around for that.

This is the worst piece of refereeing I’ve seen in a long time.

At least he reversed the penalty and you can always make an argument against marginal penalty decisions like the one at OT.

But there are just no excuses for that. In a game as important as this with such high stakes that is unforgivable.

Assume you don’t watch the PL either then?

I know, I know. It's getting worse here but is still even more so in European/International games.

I hate it and the screams, it's cringeworthy.

Really hate our players doing it. Connolly would never do it if I was manager, he'd be shown up for doing it, zero tolerance for cheating.

They should ban anyone for simulation whether actually touched or not. 5 game ban that'll stop it straight away.

No, it's the same rules.
Just like Lee Mason blowing his whistle before Lewis Dunk put the ball in the West Brom goal. The referee blew his whistle tonight before Bellingham rolled the ball in the net.
In both cases VAR couldn't be used because the ref had blown his whistle to stop the game before the ball went in the net.

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. The West Brom goal was after the ball was in. Don't change what happened.

Our game at WBA? Worse imo and far more important as well.

Bit harsh. Ederson has just whacked the bottom of Bellingham's boot with his toe. That's going to hurt.

Reminded me a bit of Stephen’s getting kicked against boro and being sent off and seeing us eventually miss out on promotion. How else was he supposed to get the ball?

Glad for him that he was never called up to fight for his country then, the little flower.

What TOSH the most Edison did was brush the shin of Bellingham he never got close to his boot. He cheated and it's disgusting.

Bellingham lucky not to get a red card. Got the ball, but studs slightly showing, opponent kicks him and falls over. What Ederson should surely have done is rolled down his socks, made a cut on his leg, then knocked the yellow card out of the ref's hand to make him change it to a red?

 

[Sarisbury Seagull]

Harsh decision.

What a player though, just 17 FFS! Fantastic composure in the after match interviews too. Just 17, ridiculous!

The way he and Foden played tonight, the future looks very bright for England.
