Handball penalty given to Galatasaray - guy was flat on his back, and slid into the box while the ball rolled up his arm. Pretty unlucky. Ball may have started touching his arm outside the box and kept touching it while he slid in - would you overturn that? No apparent VAR check, and Babel puts home a great PK for 2-0.
Yedlin starting at right back against Lazio in the Europa League. First relevant play of the game was a nice tackle.
Yedlin loses his balance as he and at attacker go tumbling out out bounds - Yedlin winds up accidentally stepping on him, but manages to keep his weight off of that leg, and both get out of it without cards or apparent injury.
34th minute - Yedlin called on to make a crucial tackle on Immobile as the last defender in the box. Great clean tackle that leaves Immobile limping. That was a challenging one.
An incredibly risky, but ultimately incredibly successful, tackle in the box by Yedlin stops a great opportunity.
That's what I'm sayin' . . . probably not allowed to use a Jewish name on his jersey in Turkey, right? Or maybe I'm reading waaaay too much into this. Just strange seeing him with a different name on his back.
Ah right. I just tuned in. ‘Roselle’ is on his back, is his middle name, and the name of his clothing line, if that’s still going. I don’t know why
Maybe he learned from Pefok that you can call yourself what you want. In the little I’ve seen Galatasaray and Roselle have looked good
Strakosha such a bad OG that the Galatasaray coaching staff can't even conceal their hysterical laughter. 1-0. Yedling was attacking up the wing, but wasn't the one who made the cross leading to the hilarity.
I mean . . . keeper gloves are tacky. Catching a ball completely unopposed is easy. It's like he was afraid of the crossbar and couldn't decide what to do. Good lord, that was terrible. Good thing for him, he's away.
His defender also had the invaluable OG assist by unnecessarily popping the ball up that led to the awkward save attempt. FUBAR all around.
Full time, Yedlin goes the distance, and was a very positive contributor on the day. On track to be in the US squad for the next batch of matches.
Yedlin with the insane sprint into space - 60 yards while no one else was sprinting - but the pass goes elsewhere.
Attacker flops after some arm to arm contact with Yedlin in the box, no call - offside called instead. Yedlin pissed about the dive.
