You're telling me that after watching the up close replay, that Rafael's two hands placed on Pedersen's shoulder for all of a second was enough to make his legs go from under him and collapse like a pansy? Football isn't a non-contact sport and you could see that there was no effort in the challenge to bring the guy down. Pedersen just fell over and whether it was against United, Liverpool, Chelsea, whoever, I'd still be saying the same thing. It was play-acting and he should have been booked.
And talking of decisions going against any team playing at OT, what happened with Jonny Evans' disallowed, yet perfectly legitimate, goal?
