Really impressed with the ref. He is no homer that is for sure. I can name lots of EPL refs that would have bottled the big 3 decisions. We need refs of that calibre in the prem.

Thought Ramos was minimal contact, certainly not enough to make Jesus fall over but it impeded him and was a foul. Jesus played it well and was a red for the deliberate nature of it. Ramos can have no complaints (and didn't).
Sterling's was a clear dive. He was on his way down well before contact was made. Pushed his right foot into the ground and fell onto the defender's legs. He saw the tackle coming but didn't need to do that. It would have been a foul if he'd stayed up. Would prefer to see no pen and a booking for that. They will never stamp out diving if they let things like that go on VAR reviews. Same with that pen Napoli got against Liverpool, forward dives into the defender and easy enough to see on the video. https://twitter.com/IStewdog/status/1232802167058243586?s=20 |

Also a lot of people saying if Ramos was a foul then Jesus' was too for the first goal. Both minimal contact but not as simple as that imo as they were different incidents but a good point all the same. Ramos' was definitely a foul, Jesus not as clear but could easily have gone the other way and I expected the VAR guys to rule it out with Real at home. No issue with it either way for me really.
