    Shocking from Federici. 2-1 Arsenal.

    He'd kept them in it up til then in fairness

    And if Simon Cox had been on the pitch that moment probably wouldn't have happened.

    Still the best goalie out there today.

    This 2nd half of extra time is not going to be good for my burgeoning ulcer is it!!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,264 ✭✭✭✭jester77


    Really feel for the poor lad, that will haunt him if it finishes 2-1


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,594 ✭✭✭kingshankly


    I blame the reading lad who crossed the ball in the box to one reading forward against 5 defenders if he holds on to the ball the ref blows up for hAlf time


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 15,694 Mod ✭✭✭✭dfx-


    Fairly harsh for it to show up on the big screen in the ground seconds afterwards for everyone to see

    How disappointed did the BBC commentator sound when the offside flag went up against reading there haha


  • Administrators, Computer Games Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 32,408 Admin ✭✭✭✭✭Mickeroo


    Was the right decision.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,940 ✭✭✭omega man


    That was a pen for me

    Ozil to Sanchez for both goals. :pac:

    Good to get the win but a pretty poor performance for long periods.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,458 ✭✭✭✭gandalf


    YESS!!!!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,199 ✭✭✭✭paulie21

    You bet it be the same if Liverpool get to the final with the whole Gerrard stuff. They be cheering on Liverpool no doubt.

    Knew I was right to be nervous about this game. Thank god its over


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,264 ✭✭✭✭jester77


    Feel for the Reading goalie. So who starts in goals in the final? Schnezy looked too shaky, could be the difference between winning.

    Ospina has to start. Arsene is gonna have to be ruthless. Szc is a liability imo

    When was the last time a team defended their fa cup?

    The perceived bias against Arsenal is embarrassing at times tbh. Why wouldn't they be disappointed that it was offside? If I wasn't an Arsenal fan I would have too, I think most people would root for the underdog if they didn't support either team in a match like this.

    This. Monreal, Bellerin and Giroud all need to go back in too.

    Has to be our best team. Ospina and Bellerin need to both start based on current form.

    Its literally the guys job to describe the game as a neutral

    There's a difference between a commentator and a neutral fan rooting for the underdog in fairness.
