I think that would be a first, giving both the pen for a foul & a yellow for diving for the same incident.
In hockey you see this. The fact that Sterling dove doesnt negate the fact that Lloris fouled him.

Oh I agree that sometimes it makes perfect sense, but sadly football is so very closed minded that if that happened I'm not sure anyone would be pleased. Every pundits head would explode.In hockey you see this. The fact that Sterling dove doesnt negate the fact that Lloris fouled him.
Tbf he's been under loads of pressure for each one I remember, the defenders are really getting on them.Augero has missed some sitters
How on earth does Aguero miss from 1m out !
Only explanation for no penalty is that Sterling started to go to ground before Lloris touched him. In which case it should have been a second yellow.
Personally I think it's both a dive (and second yellow) and a foul (and second penalty).
LoLHe’s clearly in on it!
Sterling should have been sent off for that tackle.

Just curious. Does the fact that the ball is clearly going away from goal and most likely out affect the decision to not give a penalty?

It would presumably play into the decision but not sure it was far enough away that Sterling couldn't get there.
Fucking boss this game. City carve them open over & over, mad defending, but even more mad final pass & shot decisions.
Meanwhile spurs keep very occasionally breaking & city's defence shit themselves when they do.
It's all very entertaining.
They were worse. This is spurs letting city have the ball, & trying to do what Mourinho sides do best, press just enough to force a mistake. Thing is they're not that good at it, so they're reliant on city making an unforced error, which is rare.Surely spurs weren’t this bad under poch. City domination
