Initially the Balotelli Parker incident didn't look like a sending off. Having watched some replays it does look like he knew where he was planting his foot.
Defoe 😆
As always, Spurs give m an entertaining game. Hopefully, the six point swing in the last minute crushes their spirits.
this is the first game spurs have lost with King starting for them in over a year.
At first look I thought the stamp was nasty but I've watched a load of times now and I don't think he was going for him.
I think that's a red. He had an idea of what he was doing there.

I don't either.
Very tough decision for the referee though. Think he got that one right in that moment. Impossible for anyone to judge his intention even after so many replays.
lescott and balotelli should both get bans tbh

Well if it improves United's chances of winning the title it's bound to happen.
It's depressing watching us play like utter shit and then seeing Messi go into beast mode.
Scored a hattrick, broke some record that's been held for 50 years or something because he's scored 22 goals in half a season.

Definitely.
We should know all about the effect of a shitty player undermining a very good team. Story of our lives since the move to the Emirates.

Hasn't Ronaldo outscored him in the League this season?
It's a joke League anyway. (Not that Messi's not brilliant)

Not anymore, and 7 of Ronaldo's goals have been penalties.
Ronaldo will be livid.
Anyone reckon Chelsea will go for a Torres+cash deal for Falcao in the summer?
Why would balotelli go out of his way not to stand on parkers hand but then attempt to kick his head in, doesnt make sense but balotelli is crazy.
They could try blaming the little shove that Modric gave him. It's pretty obvious what he was doing but from what i've seen he's pretty dumb so I have no idea.
Cardiff - Palace has gone to penalties. Tune in now if you enjoy the drama.
Cardiff won. 3-1.
Saw the replays and didn't think Balotelli was going for him. Pepe's was a much more obvious stamp- and he's getting away free from scot.
