Hit the City Ground

There are surprising situations in football which, like in life, are pure chance, random and unpredictable plays, important moments of luck in the future of clubs and the results of seasons. The purpose of Darwin Nunez for him Liverpoolin the 99th minute, at the limit of the discount on City land of Nottinghamis likely to be one of them, and will be well remembered, if the ‘reds’ are finally accompanied by victory this year in Premier League.

On the brink of losing two points that will be decisive in the fierce battle for the title with City of Manchester and the Arsenalthe Uruguayan striker, who came on the field as a shock and after recovering from his injury, came out with a header, in the middle of Alexis McAllister, which gave the team victory Jurgen Klopp (0-1). He did this, no doubt, in a stroke of fortune, which at the same time was very cruel for the needy. forestand, ironically, after being harassed by rival fans, in an ironic and mocking song -‘You’re just a shit, Andy Carroll (“You’re just a piece of shit, Andy Carroll”), referring to the striker who failed to Liverpool years ago -, by radical followers of the ‘confused trees’.

In gray and cold Nottingham of Eastern plainsbut energetic and passionate about the matches of the double champion of Europewe are experiencing another very difficult year, with much nervousness, as rumors intensify that the forest will incur a points discount for non-compliance with financial fair play, such as Everton, and that would greatly complicate his survival. That is why the ‘unfair’ end result hit them hard. Unstoppable fate wanted that, when the City landand sing with disdain Darwin Nunezthe Uruguayan striker is the savior of Liverpoolin a hostile field where he had not won since 1984 and on a day when the forest He didn’t deserve to lose. The despair of the entire Forest It is even logical.

In an unusual decision, the owner of Nottingham Forest, Evangelos Marinakisgot down on the grass and scolded the referee, Paul Tierney, in the locker room tunnel to blame him for some mistakes. Tierney He made the mistake of not giving the ball to forestin added time, after the match was stopped as a precaution, after suffering a blow Conaté of his goalkeeper Kelleherand there is a ball in possession of forest That mistake, a minute before the goal, and prolonging the game for more than the eight minutes set by the fourth referee, clearly benefited the Liverpooland the referee will take WiganEdit relegated to VAR the next day.

Yes Marinakiswho felt a threat hanging over his club, lost control at the end of the match was a product of the tension in the environment, which also explains why the former FIFA referee wanted to hire, the leader of Greece, Mike Clattenburgto defend himself from what he considered “referee injuries” in many games.

Neither digested well. City land that the great luck of Liverpoolafter a poor application of regulations, is at the same time another blow for forestwhich is seen approaching the Town of Luton, only 4 points. And in football the unpredictability factor also counts and, as happened on the fateful Saturday afternoon in Nottinghamis, many times, inexplicably unfair.
