David Luiz carries a mobile at all times.

[stokeriño]

Nice.

(Although they were 2-0 up anyway.)

[Baddar]

Where's his yellow card?

[stokeriño]

You want to yellow card him for owning up?

[Summers]

I think he's saying he must have dived.

He obviously didn't dive. If he dived, he wanted a penalty, and he got one.

He tripped and fell, and the referee made the wrong decision. So he told the referee that he simply fell.

No yellow card, no fouls, nothing.

[METALMAN]

Maybe he dived then expressed remorse. :/

[Baddar]

If Ashley Young/Luis Suarez went down like that, and someone said "maybe they tripped or fell", it'd be met by copious amounts of laughter here.

He dived.

[Cymbols]

Suarez and Young wouldn't own up to it though! I think maybe he did trip, cause it sort of looks like he caught his own leg with his foot.

[Summers]

If Ashley Young/Luis Suarez went down like that, and someone said "maybe they tripped or fell", it'd be met by copious amounts of laughter here.

He dived.

You dive (in the box) to win penalties. Why would he win the penalty then tell the referee it wasn't a foul?

[Baddar]

He immediately felt guilty about it.

[Gazz]

Javier Pinola wants sending off for that haircut. A proper, full-on skullet.

[Asuka's Gonna Kill You]

The Tong tackle Lineker mentioned was bad but fucking hell this is a different level. A warning that it's pretty brutal in the replay, disgraceful.

Shitting hell

[brenchill]

Total overreaction from the guy on the floor. He got the ball!

[MDK]

Yeah, what a pussy

[brenchill]

That wouldn't have even been a yellow back in the 70's!

[MDK]

Your manager would have given you a thumbs up and a bonus (a moustache comb)

[brenchill]

Back in those days you were paid in coal

[Baddar]

Ashley Young is influencing everyone nowadays.

[Matt]

Something something 1970 cup final.
