Hmm, seeing those City/Arse highlights again, the away side looked pretty hard done-to there. However, while I don't see that as a penalty, I'd agree with Shearer that Wenger is way out of order with those comments about Sterling.
FreeSports are currently showing Sporting v Braga on what I assume is a time delay. Excellent finish by Bas Dost to put Sporting ahead, but I just can’t seem to get into the channel’s coverage of the Portuguese league in comparison with the Belgian stuff.
Sporting v Braga ended 2-2, as will presumably be known by those who care, given that it was played a few days ago. Braga scored with a deflected shot and a penalty to go 2-1 up, at which Sporting fans were seen leaving the stadium. Presumably they couldn’t handle the humiliation of losing to the team ranked, erm, fourth in the table. Another clunking foul deep in injury time gave Sporting a penalty and the dicks who’d headed home missed the equaliser.
The fact that Switzerland are dominating Norn Iron without scoring makes me all the more convinced that the hosts are going to get a result.
Sky’s incredibly biased commentary team and pundits all sure Schär should have been sent off five minutes in but I would have been amazed to see a red given for the foul.
