    Really odd penalty that, no way the Arsenal player will get the ball. If that’s a penalty you’d expect 4/5 to be given each game 
    It’s not about getting the ball. 
    Of course, by the letter of the law it’s a pen but there would also be multiple pens a game if applied consistently 
    it will soon stop, if the refs do start giving pens.

    I agree but you can’t decide to do that in the QF of any competition let alone the CL

    Between VAR and this ref, they are going to ruin this game

    Baffling to take 4 minutes for VAR to call the ref over.

    I don’t see how that’s too different to the Arsenal one

    Madrid haven't been good here, half an hour in and not had a shot on target yet.

    The second one is never a penalty. No idea why VAR took so long, but the right decision in the end.

    The first one involved a lot more contact and holding back , but was still incredibly soft. No idea what was going through the defenders mind.

    The Arsenal one was definitely more of one than the Madrid one.

    VAR has had the game stopped for most of that.

    The ref is desperately hoping he doesn't have to give a second yellow to a Madrid player...

    Surely there should be more than 7 mins added.

    Declan Rice is so good as an all round footballer

    Madrid just lumping it into the box, weirdly basic tactics when you look at their front 4.

    Vinicius must be the most overrated player ever. This guy nearly won the Ballon D'or and every time i watch him he looks worse than Tyreece Campbell.

    Madrid have absolutely no idea how to break Arsenal down.

    Redemption for Saka with a smashing team goal.

    Great goal Saka. And deserved - they've soaked up Madrid comfortably.
