what the fuck were the refs on in the last 10 minutes, absolute carnage

[–] fap4jesus@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

why the fuck did var send him to the monitor? clearly hit his head. also went behind for a corner but restarts with a dropkick? the officials are on a different level

[–] curgl@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

That was horrid for my heart health

[–] BarbaricGamers@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Pawson is a joke

[–] Runarhalldor@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Embarassing officiating today

[–] omkic@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

I'm actually so confused right now...

[–] Stonewalled89@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

One normal game Chelsea... Is that too much to ask?

[–] icestrok@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

All sorts of weird, pen wasn’t given, ok but what happened to the corner ? Didn’t it go out of bounds from Levi’s face.

[–] Chelsea_Kias@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Ohhh fuck me heart..! What a match lol

[–] zi76@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Great performance in the second half

[–] No_Engineering_8832@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Thank you VAR for not letting the Brighton cheats off the hook

[–] KonigSteve@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

I'm not saying they made any incorrect decisions, but the way the ref and var ref handled themselves is a farce

[–] Yeethannes@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

How the fuck can you use more than 10 seconds checking that «handball»? Fucking insanity

[–] darthrector@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Plucky midtable team holds on for a win with 10 men against wasteful top 6 team with Barcelona's former #10 in their ranks

[–] SoWhatNoZitiNow@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

That was the most farcical bit of football I’ve ever seen at the end there. Absolute clown show.

[–] jasperplumpton@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

He gave the penalty onfield (without much conviction) then the VAR review was to overturn it, which is why they started with a drop-ball

[–] EezoManiac@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

No normal games. Every official involved in this game, whether on the pitch or in VAR has had an absolute mare.

[–] GOR098@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Quite the show for neutrals.

[–] thewaffleiscoming@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

What the fuck was that VAR drop ball in the end?

[–] V-0-V@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

I am no longer enjoying being Chaos FC

My heart cant take it.

[–] Mick4Audi@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Somehow they can’t even get the basics right. Ball went off Colwill, long VAR check, somehow that’s a drop ball

Baffling

[–] Thomas1VL@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Most competent Premier League referees.

[–] EvanMM@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Best refereeing performance

[–] fuckyouidontneedone@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

No Drama Chelsea Match Challenge : IMPOSSIBLE

[–] sneakypete5@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Seems fucked they didn't get the corner, but it was correct by the law and probably karma for trying to get a pen when it went off his head. Ref was working to keep Brighton in. To be fair so was chelsea.

[–] Alive-Ad-4164@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago
[–] Comrade-Conrad-4@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Awesome for Caicedo finishing the game with 4 yellows

[–] A_Thrilled_Peach@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

For me, the only real controversial call in the game was Caicedo not getting a second yellow for completely studding a Brighton player and going through him from behind a minute before the penalty call.

[–] BafflingMantis7@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Very nice of Colwill to cancel his goal celebration midway despite being his first goal for his boyhood club. Don’t think anyone on Brighton’s side could hold that against him if he instead went full throttle.

[–] tuerancekhang@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

What was that confusing last minute referreeing? BHA shot into Chelsea's defender face and deflect out. Check for possible hand ball even it's clear as day not? Then check complete and no corner? What is the ref doing?

[–] Noahgooner@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

What a mess

[–] lukezndr@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

I don't understand how they add injury time. There's like no rhyme or reason to it.

[–] kk451128@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Ok, can anyone explain why the restart was a drop ball, and not a corner? No penalty was absolutely the right call, but the ball did go out for a corner.

[–] ujjuboii@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

what a fucking shitshow this was

[–] Imhere4urdownvotes@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Had me at the edge of my seat... 3 points in. We should really address indiscipline issue, can't be playing hot potato with red cards every match.

[–] ttubbster@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

The ball hit Colwills large head, obviously it wasnt a pen but why did he give Chelsea possesion? It shouldve been a corner to brighton after the var check.

[–] Banged_by_bumrah@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

When will the second half of ET start?

[–] akraft121@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Just 15 more minutes and one less Chelsea player and Brighton may have nicked that

[–] Headlesshorsman02@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

And exhale 😮‍💨 😮‍💨😮‍💨

[–] ChelseaForever@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Fucking shit ref, thank fuck for VAR

[–] omkic@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

In what world was that a drop ball?

[–] yash_1310@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

That last VAR check was interesting to say the least

[–] Zavehi@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Another PGMOL masterclass

[–] BloodyPants@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

what the in mother nature was that ending

[–] Littlegreenman42@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Craig Pawson deserves to never ref again

[–] Apache313@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Bruh how they gonna give a drop ball and not a corner? No guarantee for sure but to rob them even of a chance?

[–] abnormaltruck@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

The VAR confiscated the Brighton corner. LOL.

[–] Kougteksarth@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Wtf was that colwill "handball" var situations at the end 🤣

[–] gopackgo555@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Another VAR and referring disaster class.

[–] oscarpaterson@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Can't believe we didn't completely throw it away
