“CORRUPTION OF THE HIGHEST ORDER!”
It took less than one minute for the forst corrupt decision, when PSG were awarded a penalty when Lewis Miley woz adjudged to have handled the baall inside the box!
HOWEVER! a PSG player had handled it before Miley, which should have meant —-a free kick to us!
AMAZINGLEEE! the ref went to the monitor and after a minute came back and pointed to the spot!!!???
Dembele took it, but ‘The Pope’ in The Toon goal guessed right and dived that way to save the penalty to the joy of the 2,000?Toon Travellers in the corner! JUSTICE!
UNFORTUNATELY! that joy woz short lived when PSG raced doon the pitch 4minutes later when Kavaratskellua ⬅️(hope av sppelt that reet?) crossed the baall to Vitenha on the edge of the box and he hit a low drive into the net to put the hosts 1-0 up!
PSG then went for the jugular az they carved wor midfield and defence apart and we thought that it could well be a ‘cricket score’ before the end of the forst half!
And then a bizarre incident az we attacked their goal! Anthony Elanga woz hacked don and instead of the ref bookin the PSG player, he booked Elanga instead ! Corruption of the highest order! 🥶
Waltemade attempted a heeder but it hit a defenders hand! Penalty for us az well?—nee chance!
BUT! The PSG ‘cricket score’ didn’t materialise and with the game gannin into stoppage time we grabbed an equaliser when The Pope punted a lang baall free kick upfield!
Dan Burn latched onto it and centered the baall to Joe Willock, who heeded in from close range to unexpectedly level the scores!
HT 1-1
Scores elsewhere in The Champions Leegue at the half time interval had NUFC in 8th place!—an automatic qualification to the knock oots stage!
We played much better in the second period and restricted PSV to much fewer chances and indeed we could have won the game in the final stages!
Joe Willock had the baall in the net, but it woz ruled offside—but it must have been very close?—or corrupt!
Anthony Gordon ran doon the wing and cut in—Yoane Wissa woz unmarked in the box but Gordon attempted to pass a defender and woz chopped doon! Penalty?- nee chance this time az the corrupt official waved play on!
Then at the death and unmarked by the far post, Harvey Barnes somehow missed the target with the baall at hiz feet—and the final chance woz gone!
“MONACO OR CARRIERBAG!”
By full time we had dropped to 12th place and a place in the play offs!
A lad in the seats behind us said: And I quote: “The Toon will play eethaa Monaco or Carrier Bag in the play offs!”(He meant Carabag from Azabijannn of course!😵💫)
