Koscielny could have been sent off, but there was absolutely no problem with the extra time. The substitution of Roberts and the time wasting Reading were doing in the corner more than warranted that.

edit: I think Friend is the worst referee in the PL by far btw.

Errr time wasting in the corner doesn't mean more time needs to be added. The ball was in play.

Koscielny "could have been sent off"? It was as blatant a second yellow as you'll ever see.

Having said that extra time was fun.

Go back and watch if you like. Pause it on the moment

I did and sky paused it for me. It was. No debate.

With all the accusations, racism, scandals, diving, chants, bile ect that showed the good side of football (excluding defending)... a joy to watch!

its not time wasting if the balls in play.

You are right. They wasted time in between the ball was being in play. With the corner kick, with the throw ins etc.

The Arsenal players on 90 mins throwing their shirts in the crowd

Should not be overshadowed. Planks

If you tell me theres a gap between the ball and the line you are simply not correct

Its not in. It will never be in, in the history of the universe

Far from it. Australia beat Western Samoa 31-0 a few years back. And Arbroath once beat someone 36-0

Meant in English domestic comps really haha I know about them games, I guess there's still probably been more though

With Friend being the ref it's never clear what is a yellow and what is a red. He is crap. There could have been much more cards and probably quite a few straight sending offs in this game. E.g. the horror tackle in extra time by Morrison on Jenkinson.
