It was never a foul and only a paedophile would think different.

On two occasions the cunt stopped play when 2 Lyon players were faking injury
Neither were a head injury
Not in the rules
He awarded Lyon a free kick for Bowen pushing one of their players that took place off the pitch
Again, not in the rules
The biggest disappointment tonight that was neither of the two dick head pitch invaders lamped the cunt

M180. If it's the one I think you're referring to, Bowen trod on the bloke's foot while on the pitch. It was a foul but didn't excuse the theatrics of the Lyon fella.

I was there, looked well off the pitch to me, but fair enough if I’m wrong
However I have no doubt in my mind this ref is once again involved in match fixing
The standard of referee’s is appalling
However, when all the appalling decisions keep going in favour of one team it’s blatantly obvious what’s going on

Of course it’s not a red, but Lyon and the ref knew what they were doing.

A foul possibly but a straight red absolutely never.Part of their game plan was to dive and play act at every given opportunity.I’d never want cheating to be part of ours,quite how a ref with previous form of match fixing was ever allowed to referee a game of this stature is beyond me.
German fucking cunt.

It wasn’t a red, but I don’t buy into any of the conspiracy’s either, not sure how VAR is implemented in these European games, they don’t show them like they do in the PL so you don’t know if it was even reviewed or not?
But Cresswell should have known better and a bit naïve IMO, should have kept his hands away from Dembele, as soon as he felt that touch he went down like he had been stabbed, the wink when the red card came out tells you everything you need to know about the incident, not sure how appeals work in these comps or if they can be lodged to get it rescinded?
1-1 it is, but all very much to play for, reckon we will get through as well, Moyes will have them fired up and hungry like the Seville game.

Bowens yellow was hard to understand as well.
Also I thought a couple of corners for us were given as goal kicks. Especially, one of Antonio's shot that hit a defender and out for a corner. Strange.

Also, what about the throw in Lyon fucked up in the 2nd half? Ball bounced on the pitch so was in play but the ref bizarrely chose to
Ignore the rules and let them take it again? It was one bent decision after another!

No goose. They never have same refs for 2 legged ties.

As it was a straight red, can we appeal it?

I'd appeal absolutely anything involving that referee.
He is a well-known joke in German football and, as has been pointed out by many, has also served a ban for his part in a match-fixing scandal. It is nonsense to suggest he was the selfless whistle-blower in the case, too: he took money to hush up the scandal.
He's a wrong un. Only an organisation like UEFA would allow him to ref games that badly with impunity.

Same as claret - I was at the opposite end of the incident and whilst everyone in and around thought it was deifnitely not a red, it looked dubious from our view so I thought it could well be a red.
But looking back, it wasn't.
Do they not use VAR in the knockout stages? Not that I would have trusted that ref to get it right even after reviewing it on a screen.

the lyons bloke diving to earn a penalty or a free kick was worthy of a yellow

What happened with sending off incident shouldn’t have mattered because bowen was barged off the ball up the other end. The ref was a fucking disgrace . How the fuck a ref that was suspended for match fixing can take charge of a quarter final sums up the state of football at the moment.
