Honestly one of the most shamefully thumb-on-the-scale decisions I’ve seen since, well, ok, the last Liverpool or Arsenal match but you get the idea.
Absolutely disgraceful cheating from the match officials.
I stand corrected - he’s decided to send Maguire off for an Evanilson dive after much less contact than on Cunha and not even a fraction of the wrestling and pushing that took Amad down.
You cannot watch this game and come to the conclusion that these are fair decisions made with a coherent understanding of the rules. It’s just corruption, plain and simple.
(Of course, Attwell has form for this after giving an incorrect foul - noted as completely incorrect by the EPL incident panel - in January which denied United the win. Is he just incompetent again or is he taking some revenge after being called out by the panel as being incompetent? Either way, WTF PGMOL?)
