    Seems like a cruel irony they had to play there all season.

    I think I am right in saying Burnley will want Southampton beat as them winning the cup is the only thing that would stop them qualifying for UEFA cup by coming 7th int league.

    It was good feet from Giroud but Jenas " he went past the whole team". He was only 8 yards when he got it ffs :56:

    Didn't see it live but looks like Var has struck again that would've made it 1 each in a big cup semi final..

    Never a foul..

    I didn't know it was a rule that literally any contact with a keeper when he is off the ground is a foul. That is ridiculous. Keeper's can jump into folk and will get a foul.

    VAR is *. They make the rules up as they go along.

    They basically just said you can't touch the keeper..

    It's a contact sport....although that's largely dying out..

    Utterly bizzare that if 2 people go for a ball, only the outfield player get's punished for contact..

    There was nothing in it whatsoever..

    It makes no sense if that is a rule. Every former player, Gerrard, Lampard, Jenas and Hoddle said it is not a foul but Poll said any contact is a free kick. That means that if the keeper is at the front post and the ball is lobbed to the back post for a simple header if the keeper taps some player at the front post on the shoulder the goal would be disallowed :43:

    Basically, aye..

    To be honest he was digging his self a hole there..

    VAR has been an absolute disaster down here so far..

    I agree above, it's complete and utter *..

    The one that wound me up the most recently but still divides people is the challenge Neuer made on Higuain in the WC Final. I mean he completely took him out. That kind of contact would never be allowed by an outfield player.

    Then there was the infamous Schumacher challenge years ago when a foul wasn't even given. The forward was knocked unconscious and lost 4 teeth I think.

    Winds me up that there's one rule for outfield players and a different one for keepers.
