I've played it back a few times now and can't see any contact. Can anyone else ? :-)

There was the tiniest bit of knee contact
But I really, really hate the way penalties are somehow given these days Even more annoying is how many pundits seem to be happy with it and justify it |
|
By:
silly defender
|

Just seen it again and looks like there was some contact but I think Benteke saw him coming and was always going to go down. That's the way the game is these days - i.e. very cynical.
|
|
By:
its just a benteke thing
no other players go down feeling a slight clip like that  not intentional and shouldn't be a pen imo but been on the end of ones like that and that's just how the game has gone |
|
By:
Nice ego trip for the ref in his theatrical awarding of it.
|
|
By:
Slight contact but the ball was gone....there would be ten penalties per game for slight contact......if he stood up it would have been a goal kick...sick to death of players falling over , the game is a farce...
|

By:
was on 0 2.5 defo tripped him with his knee on his ankle
too many refs bottle it at the death so fair play in this instance at the end of the day a pen's a pen whatever stage of the game converted it cooly as it goes 'pool deserved the win far the better side even with 10 palace were pathetic |
|
By:
Definite contact, the palace defenders right knee slide into Benteke's left foot, that's why he goes over, probably a bit easily but a penalty it is.
|
|
By:
Cast iron pen, not sure how anyone can say otherwise. He got past his man and was looking to cross.
Clear as day he caught his leg with his knee. Nobody can carry in when your back leg is taken. In conclusion OP - you are blind. |
|
By:
defender was rash , should have stood him up and forced him to byline
|
|
By:
However that contact is about 1-3% of the contact made, when teams are jostling at corner or free kick set pieces.
It's just madness how football has gone |
|
By:
Stupid challenge agreed.
But a pen is a pen. |

Old habits die hard. No matter who is in charge of liverpool.

from the camera angle YOU CAN NOT SEE ANY CONTACT...IF there as any contact..Benteke had already lost control of the ball
Those are the facts |
|
By:
they are very good at playing for the contact,he saw the player stupidly dive in and let him catch him,harry kane did something similar yesterday to get someone sent off,he had actually jumped him then put his leg down to make sure of the contact
|
|
By:
plenty of pens are given when the player has no chance of getting the ball
ie the ball is pushed ahead and the contact is waited for being able to get on the ball after has not been that big an issue from my watching of football in recent years |

*i'm not saying that's how it should be but that's how it is

By:
REPLAY SHOWS the contact but now the likes of pardew who want video evidence used,has decided that the linesmen didnt see that contact but thought there was contact earlier,LOL,they,ll be wanting lie detectors and mind readers next
|
|
By:
Can anyone on here absolutely confirm with their own eyes THEY SAW contact from TV pics
|
|
By:
Clear penalty.
|
|
By:
his knee catches his foot
|
|
By:
anybody who no,s or played the game no,s that socks clicking together can make you fall,anyone saying benteke dived is actualy saying he was diving anyway and the contact came anyway, he had his back to him and didnt go down after the 1st lunge so how did he no there was more contact coming for him to dive
|
|
By:
idiotic challenge asking for trouble but benteke could have avoided contact if he'd wanted to but he made sure there was slightest touch on the defender
|
|
By:
Why should Benteke try and avoid contact?
It was a stupid challenge that got what it deserved. |
|
By:
How could Bentekke avoid contact when it was his standing foot and his eyes were looking at the ball in front of the defender!
In the land of the blind the one eyed man is king. |

benteke fowls the fella's knee...

 |

By:
Pretty conclusive

By:
the touch did not put Benteke down. he fell deliberately. No penalty.
Any idiot was parrots there was contact or i've seen them given should give up thinking for themselves and just suck Alam Shearers one Embarassing. cant see the same ref giving a penalty like that to Palace or against Chelsea or City. maybe against Leicester though! |
|
By:
Ok Alan.
|
|
By:
like when Rooney dived to get the penalty against Sol Campbell and ended Arsenals unbeaten run.
The pundits probably yes Alan, said what was he thinking trying to make a tackle there. He deserved to concede a penalty but Rooney clearly dived and was not touched! It makes me mad  !https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=niYaLPDVN2o Watch that link. Some footballers should be ashamed and embarassed and so should some fans. There was contact indeed! |
|
By:
Yeah, consolation being Rooney absolutely shat himself when Campbell confronted him
 |
|
By:
hazard the master of kicking his foot onto defenders to win pens and freekicks.think benteke was a pen though
