Apropos of nothing, i note that conspicuous by absence are any prosecutions this season for FFP violations.

it’s impossible that everybody is suddenly behaving.

Great anticipation by Curtis, but not enough guile in the end.

That was quite the finish. And good move from Fulham from to back.

Encouraging how the Reds played without making a sub. Now for some of that halftime Slot magic.

Salah has to take on Robinson every chance he gets a 1v1.

looked like it took about 10 minutes to sort out the 10 men. Liverpool played much better after that. If Liverpool tie it they’ll win it.
Your lips to Slot’s ears!

This Union Berlin game....GK for Bochum is wasting time. Someone threw a lighter at him. it *grazed* his head. I mean, it touched hs hair and did not hit any live cells. 10 seconds later maybe, he touches his head. Then goes down as if he is enduring the worst migraine anyone has ever had. They're trying to waste time down a man. Now Bochum has come off the field, the GK was helped off with with two people's help, after getting medical attention on the field. No players are on the field right now, and the clock is still going at 99 minutes.

Union is back on the field, Bochum still not on the field.

This is really pathetic by Bochum. No excuse for the lighter, but this is being milked far beyond any reasonable degree. I mean, compared this to the trash thrown the field in in the Spurs match last week, and that was a full on riot.

Slot going all in. Haven’t seen him throw on all the attackers like this.

Bochum is saying now that Drewes can't continue and are gong to have use a forward in goal because they've used all their subs?

This is absolutely bananas. They're really going all-in on this. Game is about to resume after 28 minutes or so.

Ref just blew the whistle early. I have no idea what just happened. Why Union would agree to this? No idea.

+9.

There’s almost too many Liverpool attackers starting to squeeze into the same spaces.

They both wanted the point from a draw? But yeah not really a good look.
I don't get it. Union had a man advantage and 5 minutes left. They were attacking the whole time. The only think I can think of is some kind of gentlemanly thing that if Drewes was injured by the lighter and Bochum were out of subs. But if you see the Drewes getting "hit" with the lighter, I mean I don't see how that knocks someone out commission like that. And it took him until he realized it was a lighter that hit him before he went down. The whole thing is just impossible to understand right now.

Have to catch my breath after that. Who said Slot Ball was more controlled & measured?
