Not hand ball for Adebayor.
There should be penalty for Man Utd.

但我覺得只係攝影機既角度問題......

be honest, I think there'd be excuse for rumours.......

I watched that game too... cos if there'd be similar situation as that Man Utd's player describing about it. The reaction for Man Utd players won't be liking this when they lost that goal -- they should blame each others.. indeed they just knock down their heads and walked away ....

Actually I don't want to reply this topic, cos I would like to let others to share their feelings, but not me...

But up to now, I believe I should step up to say something.

Some board members in here that they may know 1 of my career is: soccer referee, who got FIFA referee license and I am refereeing local league in Sydney, Australia.

I look at both incidents for Champions League and the penalty that Man Utd was given.

This is my comment, from a referee point of view

Arsenal vs Liverpool -- that referee failed to give the penalty -- I mean, even as referee, I think there'd be unforgivable mistakes. He saw that action completely and he'd be failed to make the penalty

Liverpool vs Arsenal -- the referee was not in the best position -- as referee should be normally running left side of the ball within 10-15 yards -- he didn't so he couldn't see the whole incident clearly. I would say there'd be marginal penalty -- of cos when we watched from TV angle, there would be no penalty and you can say you should caution Ryan Babel -- as he was diving  in that incident. But if referee was standing in that position and needed to make that decision with 1 second. I am surprising for his decision.

Man Utd vs Arsenal -- there should be penalty, 100%, because when you looked back that incident -- Gallas was raising up his hand to touch the ball -- no matter he was moving to the  front or to the back. Referee thought he got intention to move his arm to touch the ball, there should be penalty.

William Gallas didn't caution for that incident is because referee knew he broke the Law of the Game, but not "seriously" using his arm to touch the ball. He got his yellow is due to he'd be challenging the decision from referee.

I hope what I say, can make you clear for these incident

Truth – you are right, Assistant referees are really important, that’s why I teach assistant referees in my church soccer league, ‘don’t dream in all 90 mins’ But from the law of the Games, Assistant Referee is running side line on left side in defending half – in first 2 incidents – there’d be happened in right side in defending half – at least 40 to 50 yards of both incidents and some players may block their views – seems assistant referees couldn’t see both incidents clearly.

Another thing I really would like to point out -- Referee is not easy to do it -- seriously.

I believe a lot of people in here, he/she may never be refereeing a real game -- I mean in any league or in competition. There'd be a lot of pressure for any referees in charge for a game.
Referees must remember all the rules in their heads, deal with players/substitutes/coaches/managers on the field. There'd be mentally strong to deal with these -- especially you need to make decision with in 1/5 seconds during incident and 1/2 people on the field may upset your decision -- or could be all people upset your decision

Remember I am not talking about spectators factor in here already -- there could be nightmare as you never be on field.

I feel really annoying as if referee made some bad decision -- people in here, just think they are corrupted -- it'd be stupid thinking -- referee couldn't gamble -- and they can't share their feelings after the game in media -- what can they do?

Just be mature -- something maybe not going the way you are thinking -- even good or bad -- it maybe not what'd be happened that you are thinking in your head -- think wider

If you can make mistakes in your life, then why they can't make mistakes? I am not saying there'd be right as these referees made some mistakes....

They may never mean for this!

Also, there'd be a case that is corruption between referees, but how many % in reality? 0.00000001? there'd be about 100,000 games around the world every day! Don't use microscope to say REFEREES ARE CORRUPTED in BIG COMPETITION!
