That lasted well

Can't argue with that . It's a good job I don't gamble, I'd be a poor man.

City getting a helping hand again.

The gift from the referee for the 2nd goal was laughable.

Even more so when you see that Brighton penalty claim just then.

It was Doucore and it was in retaliation to MacAllister kicking him in the thigh, handbags!

Ok but you think kicking someone in the ribs while he’s lying on the ground is ok.

And retaliation is usually a foul.

 

[clubchamp98]

The lad on the ground milked that like hell. That wasn’t even a kick.

Yes it was.
It was in retaliation apparently!

 

[3offTheTee]

That "foul' on Juan Pedro MUST be a penalty. If he had not been tripped he would have hd a shot. This VAR is too subjective nd needs sorting.

 

[Billysboots]

This is death by a thousand cuts football.

The third City goal they were like an Anaconda, gradually constricting the space Brighton had to play in before extinguishing the life from the Seagulls by means of Fodens left foot.

Sorry to say this, because some of the stuff City play is breathtaking, but for the majority of the time they are unutterably boring to watch.

He’s always been like that on the back post though.
It’s not a coincidence and a deliberate play from Everton.
Clever tactics.

City were a machine tonight, great performance from them at a so called tricky away match .

 

[Aztecs27]

looking forward to them visiting the city ground on Sunday

Agreed, but Brighton didn't get any help from the ref!

 

[Swingalot]

Are we all Brighton fans tonight?

No

I think it’s just as bad as a player lying on the floor kicking out and up in to another players groin.

And kicking someone without the ball is definitely a foul.

 

[Tashyboy]

A professional display from City tonight. If that’s not a penalty for Brighton then I am learning the words to “ country rd take me home”.

 

[Norrin Radd]

Brighton lost

Right and kicking someone in the ribs while they’re on the floor is a red card imho.
Macallister does kick out and maybe should have gone with him.
Just more weak reffing from VAR who did have a look at it.

What key are you in.
