I've only seen the TV coverage angle with no replays, but it would have been a soft foul based on that. We've had plenty of those not given on Vicario this season. Keepers are just not what they used to be. Would Schmeichel or Seaman have allowed themselves to be brushed aside like that? Not a chance.
I thought the striker just got there first.
The keeper hit his arm more than him hitting the keeper.

But seen them given.
Strange the things they let go without VAR.

I'd have taken 2-1 today and in fact any of the past few seasons at Villa Park. Villa are playing well and we're not so not what I'd call a surprise result. Looking at the stats can be deceiving but also hardly sounds like we weren't competitive.

I'll grab some positives where I can :)

I thought Villa were miles better than City. Apart from a few long shots from Foden, City seemed to offer no threat at all, until they scored at the end.
