Boxing Day Other Matches

Joao Pedro is your typical “insert new player name” flavor of the month type player. All style but little substance.

Technically there is plenty of substance. But he is not playing at anywhere near world-class level now and the team as a whole looks toothless, despite having lots of players everybody wants.
 
Why do refs stop play when someone gets smacked or just grazed by an open hand to the face? Its certainly not a head injury.
Embarrassing to see Ødegaards antics there. Rolling around.
 
I've never seen a team down just a goal with less than a minute remaining of injury time and with comfortable possession do less to attempt to generate a scoring opportunity.
It was bizarre. They went side to side for twenty minutes and put in one shit cross. What a pathetic display by a relegation threatened side ‘chasing’ an equaliser.
 
The only possible defence is that perhaps the camera angle is playing tricks with us and the Brentford player was already past him when he started swinging the elbow - so it was a gesture of frustration aimed at a referee, not an attempt to hit someone.

If it’s the latter, definitely deserved a sending off.
