There is a good chance we will be the 2nd place team with most points ever in the league format. The most number a second place team finished is 72.
I think 77 / 79 points is about right for us. Depends how long we think we still have a shot. I can see us dropping points at Vasco already.
If it's the 2nd goal, how is that a foul on Luiz Adriano ? He plants his foot and gets kicked. I am confused people think that's a foul.
Vasco's defender was in motion to kick the ball and before Luiz Adriano's foot was planted. LA's foot knocks the defender's foot off its course and made sent him off balance and the defender basically whiffs at the ball. LA didn't even come close to making a play at the ball.
That's pretty misleading pic. By the time the Vasco player starts his movement to kick the ball, Luiz Adriano is already reaching for it. I definitely give you the offsides on the last game. And the PK Deyverson, eventhough I am pretty sure he got kicked, don't see how they could see through the water. Maybe they have infrared VAR Anyways ... Carille found a home pretty quick. Signs for Atletico.
What about the hand ball on the free kick that led to the first goal? I haven't seen anything on Carille.
For me typically the play dies once the goalie picks up the ball or the ball goes out of bounds. Falls in the category of how far are we going back after a goal to look for something "irregular" ? But I can see that as being a problem here since Prass quickly starts the counter attack. I don't even know what the rule says in this situation. Probably there isn't anything written covering this and many other in game situations. I know you can't have a handball on an attacking play where a goal is scored, but this handball is on a defensive play. It's a grey area. I guess Carille was a rumor. Atletico has denied it.
@Mengão86 At 14:03 ... do you think that's a PK ? Don't look at the arm, look at Vasco's player's left leg. Technicall he gets the ball first, but he whacks Luiz Adriano on the thigh on the way down.
I wouldn't have had an issue either way. If I called, I would have felt it was a bit soft, but that depends on the criteria the ref has been using during the game.
How are you going to pull a player down when you're on a yellow and there is a defender there to help ?
Desencana. Esse ano já era. Tinha que colocar a base pra jogar. Gabriel Veron faria mais do que Deyverson, Borja e Henrique Dourado juntos, já que Luiz Adriano deve ter a energia sugada pela russa e só se machuca. Maldição da camisa 10. Aliás, Valdivia podia voltar. Muito melhor que o Lucas Lima.
If you hadn't squeezed by Botafogo midweek and the difference was down to 6 pts I'd be really pissed. Scarpa's PK was atrocious.
