Aston Villa vs Juventus post-match thread.

They need to seriously investigate this ref. Not just for the pathetic decision to disallow the goal (no var on screen either ) but all the dodgy yellows he was giving us yet their players were constantly fouling us and rarly given yellows.

Disgusting referring

Kamara and the defence were superb. Emi motm for me he was excellent

The "foul".

[Rigadon]

And now we’re into ‘oh great save from Emi Martinez’ which changes the narrative. Yes, great save.  But… FUCK OFF.  The story here is the absurd decision (after a load of shit decisions) at the end.

Watching it, I thought the ref had signalled for a free-kick not a goal, and then the VAR check was whether to overrule disallowing the goal.

One of the reasons why the signal for a goal being so similar as the signal for a free kick to the defending team is so stupid.

[CT Villan]

The officials ruined our game, I don't see how such experienced refs can be so grossly negligent, which only leaves one other option - corruption.

Rogers was very poor and needs some time on the bench, I was shocked when Kamara was subbed as I thought he was our motm, though Emi wasn't far behind. I wanted us to play a bit more on the front-foot but understand the conservative approach given our recent run of results.

[Cliftonville Villlain]

The standard of refereeing in the CL has been atrocious. That's a goal. Emery needs to start being more vocal about the impartiality of some of these clowns. Three Villa bookings in the first 40 minutes and then that absolutely scandalous decision tells me that a certain bank account may have recently been improved greatly. Juventus have always been a fucking law unto themselves.

[stevo_st]

Okay. And explains the half hearted celebrations after the ‘goal’.
Guess VAR wouldn’t have overruled if the ref had given it.

[The Edge]

Cheating referee bribing ******. Even SHA agrees Villa were cheated.

Who cares what they think? Why are you looking at that shite when we have a Champions league football match?

We need to be careful not to run Kamara into the ground - and Rogers actually.

[PhilVill]

Carlos and Cash, no brain farts so good stuff. Wasn't amazing but certainly not terrible and 10 points. Not much point in repeating what's been said about the ref and the goal, certain clubs in Europe would have been given it, the rest of us can do one.

[astonvilla82]

Thought the days of we don't like English teams include Scottish clubs as well by foreign referees were long and gone, but it seems like another Eurovision song contest

[Villa Lew]

That crap decision could cost us top 8 place.

[DB]

Sitting in thr car stuck in traffic.
Better perf overall, Rogers got better as game went on, but gives the ball away too much. Kamara was superb. Bailey is dross, I would sell him Jan if we had a replacement lined up.

That crap decision could cost us top 8 place.

that and disrespecting Brugge by fielding a shite team.

"No cheating bastards will I talk to,’" said Brian Clough at the Stadio Comunale di Torino in 1973 after Juventus had defeated Derby County 3-1 in the European Cup.

51 years of fuckeries and still they get away with it.
