    Man United + a goalkeeper - Man City 1-0.

    It was quite a good game. I suspect the CL final will not be as
    interesting (slower pace, less competitive ?).

    Handball penalty was one of those ones that really annoy me, but in this case Grealish's hand did appear to move towards the ball, so not a
    surprise at all (to me) that it was awarded.

    Puzzling to me why City did not get a penalty for Fred's foul on de
    Bruyne who was in a very menacing position.

    United's quadruple quest ends with one-ble. But at least it was a major trophy!

    Fred was ahead. Not by much but he just covered the ball. That's allowed.

    Why was Silva not booked for kicking Shaw? Why was Grealish not booked
    instead for diving?

    And De Gea. I consider both City goals his fault. MAYBE the sun caught him
    on the first, though.

    Let's see if the FA will do what UEFA won't, at least against City.

    Should have been based on the replay. Probably wasn't clear to the ref
    in real time, and VAR can't do yellows I believe.

    Why was Grealish not booked
    instead for diving?

    Instead of what ?

    And De Gea. I consider both City goals his fault.

    He definitely looked as though he was caught flat footed on both .

    MAYBE the sun caught him
    on the first, though.

    Wan Bissaka never hit Grealish. Grealish made deliberate contact and dived.

    My impression was that there was some contact from Wan Bissaka's tackle,
    which missed the ball, and might have been enough to cause Grealish to
    fall, but the yellow was excessive for sure.

    Graelish kept his foot low in order to make contact. It was a very
    deliberate dive.
