Best referee i have seen in a long long time👏💪
Mendes was clumsy he kneed noni poor analysis
Refree was perfect , the game was boring. i hope we will never see Arsenal in the final again until they start playing attacking football
The ref was the worse ref I have seen . Clearly the 12 th man for psg .
The ref was bias in second half
That guy is on madueke's back
Anyone saying it should be a penalty for Saka's handball are simply trying to say Bayern got robbed even worse than we thought initially
when the ball deflected from the body ,is not a penalty but I have seen given in the CL and against Arsenal again
If Arsenal would have won, the talk would have been Ref errors made Arsenal win.
This lady…… supports anything wrong or correct.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yes, I’m an Arsenal fan but deeny literally says a lie. He said madueke doesn’t get touched and throws him self. I’d admit it’s hard to see but it’s not an opinion about whether he’s let gets touched or not.
If people want to argue about the arm pull … fine but saying there is zero contact on the leg is a lie. Football punditry is ebb disingenuous
Daniel Siebert has ZERO INTEGRITY !! He needs a refresher in ETHICS !! That was the most bias match ive watched in a long time. So CROOKED he appeared bought and paid for at times. He needs to be removed until his INTEGRITY is back on track !!
U lost me at Christina
Arsenal lost because of their attack.
If they're serious about winning the Champions League, they need to move on from below-average forwards like Gyökeres, Martinelli, Jesus, and Noni. I'd even put Saka in that conversation.
They're never going to win a UCL trophy with a front line full of mediocre players. The standards at the top level are simply much higher.
summary of Arsenal fans in the comments section:
Saka handball: no handball
second yellow for Mosquera: no yellow card
Madueke grabbing Mendes‘ arm and pulling him down: foul on Madueke
Hakimi/Havertz incident: red card for Hakimi
don’t forget all this comments came after their team had 25 % ball possession and played about 600 passes less than PSG
that’s why everyone on this planet, even fans that don’t like PSG, are happy that this team and their fanbase lost.
Nice.
I see Christina. I click play – on a different video. But this time I'm leaving a comment before skipping.
deeney’s pundit career launched by all the shorts and reels edits of him scoring the last minute goal for watford
How can that even be considered as a handball? Unless you want different rules when it is arsenal. It’s the champions league final.
How is this a debate? He controlled the ball TWICE. one inadvertent miss kick to the forearm is understandably debatable but the second took the ball away from play and was illegal. Psg could have got it had his left arm not touched the ball. There are other rules not just the rule that she is referring to
The refs probably flagged Madueke as a diver and watched him closely. I thought it was a nailed on pen before I saw the front view. Madueke is a cheat, plain and simple. I still can't believe Atleti weren't awarded a pen in their match.
Best REFEREE I have seen I a long while, fair play
ABSOLUTE DISGRACE!!!! This ref was a joke as are every one of these pundits….
Hilarious that this is even a video idea
That's a handball all day long
Arsenal fought hard and stayed in the game, but overall PSG deserved the win. They dominated possession, chances, and created far more danger throughout the match. 🔵🏆⚽
Lots of talking. No resolution. It’s ambiguous because that’s how they manipulate the scores and results. It’s that simple. Let’s not pretend
Representative of english football as premier league champ.. .. 25% possession n 1 shot on target for the whole match.. WTF
Hakimi pulled a player by the arm, handed him to the ground. No foul. Just one example of the inconsistency in the match
lol. thats all i can say. Ref didnt even let Arsenal take the corner kick at the end of the 1st half. Thats a first ive ever seen that… u didnt mention that did ya?! Complete bias.
Fantastic referee. Didn't fall for any of Arsenal's anti-football BS. No nonsense. And of course Varsenal found out that without PGMOL they can't win by cheating.
This referee in trying to be equitable made some horrible decisions
Best refereeing performance in a long time! All spot on
The was fantastic in this game i really loved the fact he didnt give a handball, no red card and when he end the first half after Arsenal were taking too much time to execute i was like that's brillant my guy.
Ref was MASTERFUL….Penalty for PSG was correct -no yellow; non-call for Arsenal Madueke when he locked arms; saka – not a handball b/c it came directly off his body and was not deliberate and best of all – blowing halftime as Arsenal was lining up for a corner because of their time wasting – Absolutely Correct and Brilliant.
This lady can say whatever she wants, a handball from Saka is a penalty. They should bring an expert referee to the show, not this lady who says something different about the same situation every time. Because she doesn't want the referees to be called out. This season, the referees have ruled in favor of Arsenal at least 10 times when they were wrong. They have helped Arsenal all season.
Saw Christina and just skipped the entire video
Ref was absolute perfect today but PSG should've been given another pen and Arsenal should've had a red card
PSG robbed Asernal using VAR, linesmen and referrer corruption of the highest level,am not supporting any team it's totally fraud not fair.😔😔😔😔😔
Great commentary. Brought helpful insights to the game. Thank you.
IT WAS. YOU SAID NO BECAUSE YOU LOVE ARSENAL
