Redknapp is lucky all the attention is going to the penalty decision. Any other manager, without his friends in the media, would be having questioned asked over the utter capitulation that followed. Spurs had a strong side out, only Defoe missing but the lack of fight that they showed in that 20 mins spell was appalling.
Harry's reaction to the decision was poor as well, 2-1 up and instead of reminding his team of that and shoring them up he played into the victim mentality. And of course his team should have bene down to 10 after 5 mins. |

so, to sum up
our game:
palacios should have been sent off; we got a dodgy pen just like the one that knocked us out of the cup last year (not to mention the penalty we should have had against portsmouth and the fact that harry's team were allowed to barge into ronaldo from the first minute); we won 5-2 and a penalty can't do that for you - we were always going to win (I said in the match thread we'd score 6 when it was 2-0 if we kept putting them under pressure... it was "obviously coming" and the momentum was already with us). liverpool's game: no way was mascherano fouled, he just slipped over; there was a foul by liverpool in the build-up to their second and a handball; the lad who was sent off was fouled in the penalty area - should have been a penalty to hull (fair enough he gets sent of for reacting, though) - it wasn't much different to the carragher hand-off that got a free kick just outside the box; by my reckoning, that's 2-1 to hull with a competent ref. so who got lucky with the ref yesterday? |
