    Having seen the replay a few times, I think that's a dive. I don't care if there was contact, he stuck his leg out to the right to try and draw the foul. Correct decision from the referee.

    Don't think it was either, the guy did put his leg to the right and it was just the two bodies coming together. Think the ref got it right.

    Definitely went looking for it, clearly threw his leg into Sviatchenko's path and fell immediately. I don't buy everyone on BT Sport's pish either that he tried to cut across Erik, he just threw his leg in, not his whole body. Dive.

    Never a foul. The * made the contact, not Erik.

    This is exactly it. It's not even as if Sviatchenko's arm goes into his back or anything.

    Couldnt have complained if he did give a freekick or a penalty or a red but the guy did stick his leg in front of him looking to be hit so it was sneaky play and Erik never meant to touch him he brought contact upon himself so get it up him.

    It's not a pen and a red card, it can't be.

    He def cut across Sviatchenko, if he just ran straight he'd have scored, was looking for it

    It was a foul IMO.

    What it didn't warrant was the broken record player Sutton crowing on about it for an hour like a * idiot.

    I think he was shaping to shoot and as started to shift right then tangled legs with Erik, think we got away with it to be honest, if that was the other way around would of been screaming for it, the striker was in front of Erik.

    Foul all day long.

    I looked away knowing the penalty and red were coming, astonished it never came.

    Although ive no sympathy for caley after the semi...still holding a grudge on that one.

    If this happened at the other end there'd be a few on here screaming about honest mistakes.
