    Strange this Walton stuff. Is there really a debate whether it’s a penalty? It was pretty cut and dry. Keeper took the player and didn’t get any of the ball. I would imagine it’s only a point of debate in the U.K.

    Are people only up in arms because Argentina benefits?

    I still think it was a penalty. Twitter seems split on this

    Clearly a penalty he’s come out missed the ball and clattered the player

    Its a tough one.

    See where the panel are coming from, he's the Goalkeeper he cant just get out of the way.

    But equally he's come off his line to get the ball, so he has to win it - It does feel like he plants his feet, because he knows whats going to happen, so tries to make it look as though the Argentinian is running into him.

    If he had stayed on his line, and they ran into each other, then I'd argue no penalty

    I think the Goalkeeper has tried to look clever, and its not worked.

    It was a penalty.  It shouldn't be.  That's a different argument.

    It's like the off sides.  Yes it's off side but if a human can't give it off it should be on.

    That was never a penalty in English football. 
    he took a shot which was going wide, before they collided.
    Walton just backs up the ref 99% of the time.

    I guess we are not getting anything past McAllister in our cup game next week.

    Messi has made an absolute mug of Gvardiol there and he's a defender who's allegedly got clubs after him for 80m+

    Have to say that was brilliant from Messi.

    I'm glad this isnt on BBC though, Lineker & Co would be sucking him off after that

    I don't know I think whoever they play in the final they are going to have their hands full with Messi.

    If the question was ' What is Lionel Messi?'
    I think we've just witnessed the answer

    Genius

    Alvarez would have run onto his own shot if he hadn't been taken out

    Reminds me of a young Kevin Lisbie. 
    Yes, I really think this Messi chap is THAT good.

    I don't think he is as good as Lisbie was but close.

    Have you muted McMoist? I think his commentary position probably resembles a plasterers radio.

    Agreed he has been very good, which just shows that Messi is on another planet.

    Quite surprised at 3-0 up they haven't taken him off. Imagine if he got injured now.
