Indirect Free Kick

Surely with your logic 90% of penalties would be indirect free kicks then as they are simply mistimed tackles

But it wasn't a diving header, it ducked down not even a foot. If you were correct do you not think anyone else at all might pick up on it?

Not a great analogy is it?

We were talking about the difference between an indirect/direct free nkick, not mistimed tackles

Anyway you got the three points even though you have not commented on Kos being offside before the penalty.

See, sometimes things do go your way.

i see where gg's coming from

he's saying burnley's penalty shouldn't have been given as that burnley player that made the run created a dangerous situation with coquelin. coquelin was only going for the ball after all, that nasty burnley player shouldn't have gone for the ball in case someone broke his leg

Limbo, think you have summed it up pretty well1

You were correct in saying penalty should not have been given, Koscielny was offside to start with, but that of course does not matter.

And before you mention the City game, it was a definite penalty by Walker and probably a red card too!

I did, I was being sarcastic!



Sir Digby, I have never claimed it was a diving header, I used that analogy to illustrate things.

But the Burnley player misstimed it as he didn't get the ball

That's not mistiming, it's being second to the ball.

Mistiming was Lloris not quite connecting properly when he tried to head the ball clear on Saturday!
