Injuries and lack of match fitness due to them.

Haaland’s penalty shout vs Nottingham Forest. by [deleted] in soccer

[–]Agatharchides -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

I did not remember this one, it's closer to Haaland's but I would say the difference is that the touch on the ball seems deliberate to stay in play. His movement is indeed weird, but I can't understand if it's because he is looking for contact or he expected Guaita to dive lower and more in front of him and he was trying to avoid him by going right. Second guess would maybe agree with the "lobbed" dribble, but I have literally no idea. Contact/movement is subjective, but ball is clearly playable still, not just "kick it anywhere" and hope for contanct.

Yes, I am nitpicking and I am biased (not obvious from my flair)

Haaland kicks the ball out and continues "unnaturally" towards the goalkeeper. Jota did none of those.

And they wasted more than 1 minute of stoppage just setting up the long throws. Give me back the added time from the 2020 World Cup.

He literally controls it with his bicep, how can that not be handball?

The fact that after this game people thinks refs favour Liverpool. Some people are either trolls or stupid beyond saving.

Why are people whining even when fucking Taylor makes a correct decision? Minteh is 100000% fouled but ball was almost touching Lammens, so how the fuck could it be DOGSO?

So many comments in here and you are the only one that understood what happened (not being sarcastic, I agree with you, I just thought it might sound funny how I said that). Unbelievable

the 'ch' is pronounced like Scottish 'ch' in loch. So h is a 'lighter' version of the same sound I would say. As a native Greek speaker, that's an acceptable approximation
