Fantastic goal from Torres but Gerrard should've slipped him in on that break instead of playing the ball out wide to the right.

Rooney is being FORCED to come deep. He has no option but to do so and it's clear this system is not working. Liverpool are too disciplined to let it work so a change is definitely required. There just isn't enough quality in the United side atm with three creative geniuses on the bench. Carrick has been very very solid and has been so much better than Fletcher, again. As for the pen, it was just outside but if that's not denying an obvious goalscoring opportunity I don't know what is. If Valencia went untouched he was bearing down on goal like no tomorrow.

How does the decision work by the law on the penalty?

Is it from the beginning of the foul? (outside the box) or is it when the advantage ended by Valencia not being able to be ahead of the player? (in the box).

I believe it would depend whether it is one offense or two, i.e. Is he holding on to him the whole time? If so it's one offense and the freekick should be awarded where it started.

If he held him, let go then held him again you could say that there was advantage from the first offense and the foul is given for the second one and the freekick/penalty given depending on where that second offense took place.

Schocking, perfect start for us. All set up to contain and counter, undone by a diabolical decision, how in gods name did he think that was in the box! :blink:

Carragher and Agger look shakey, and someone needs to double up on Valencia with Insua. More of the same second half , with Babel on later.
i know man, the foul happened outside of the box, this ref has been shocking. i said at the start of the thread howard webb would kill us and thats what is happening
no

Decent game. Liverpool look like a different team but Gerrard has been poor. Doesn't even look that interested. Torres looks well up for it but needs to control his temper, though the ref needs to pay a little more attention - Vidic just treated Torres like a ladder and got away with it.
Man United going to dominate second half attempts though I reckon, cos they have the attacking options but Liverpool seem to be just booting it up to... Torres and he's being dealt with.
Man United will win. They're not playing that well (or that poorly) but they seem more composed than Liverpool.

You trying to say Mascherano should have been sent off?

So by the law the penalty was the correct decision?

Not for me - It looked like a single offense of holding that started outside the box and the ref never gave an indication of an advantage anyway.
