Bob Madley's comical errors for Mahrez Penalty.

I hate Mahrez's stuttering run ups to penalties and have seen him miss too many that way, and screw it up today. Vardy, Slimani and Fuchs all take better penalties than Mahrez. 

 

Exactly, Personally, I think Slim or Fuchs are our best Penalty takers.

They only scored 1 goal, if Mahrez is the penalty taker, maybe there's a reason? Messi, Ronaldo miss PK, with the amount Mahrez has to deal with, it's pretty obvious that he's more exposed.

The only thing is about this penalty which in my opinion was a wrongly given one is that the refs generally poor performance and all his other mistakes are going to be glossed over due to a freak event that he managed to get right

Thing is though he did not get it right the correct decision was to disallow the penalty and order a retake due to the encroachment from 3 players

The penalty decision was spot on. Encroachment means nothing unless mahrez misses a fairly taken penalty. 2 touches is a foul take and free kick the other way. I think the rules are fair here to be honest.

 

Lesson learned: don't do shitty run ups.

you would be forever taking penalties over and over again if that rule was completely enforced 

the encroachment has only been brought up because of the nature of the penalty 

if mahrez had scored legitimately nobody would be bothered about it

Not quite sure of your logic here, our punishment for breaking the rules was the goal being disallowed Man City's punishment for 3 players encroaching was??

No because as soon as refs started enforcing the laws keepers would stay on the line and players would stay out the box

Watch Bob Madley when Riyad strikes the ball. Madley is looking towards the goalkeeper when he strikes it, so how could he see the two touches.

 

Bob Madley is influenced by the Man City players reaction, he didn't even see the two touches by Riyad.

 

Also, you can clearly see two Man City players in the box before Riyad strikes the ball, so it should have been a re-take anyway.

The real tragedy here is letting Mahrez be the penalty taker. How many has he fluffed now.

 

He never looks confident and his stupid staggered run ups dont help him either.

Exactly. Never understood the arguments like that. It's like when people say you can start punishing certain offences with red cards or penalties because it would result in countless red cards or penalties every game. Well yeah, that's point, 10 penalties or 5/6 red cards a game then players would soon stop doing whatever it is you're trying to stamp out, and it's the same for this. Enforce the law and they'll soon stop.

Absolutely.. The fact he saw the double contact and chose to ignore the encroachment (also in his line of vision) proves he made a large and costly error.  We were done.

2 players and no punishment because the 2 touch take was a foul. If Mahrez had taken one touch and missed then the encroachment should have been punished.

And the encroachment happened first... if we're applying the laws rigidly then the ref should stop it in the run up and start again. Besides which the law says:

 

a player of both teams infringes the Laws of the Game, the kick is retaken unless a player commits a more serious offence (e.g. illegal feinting)

 

is two touches a more serious offence than encroachment?

So is there a conclusion to this ??

 

Retaken... yes or no :unsure:

I think we should restart the debate.

But the encroachment offense is strange because it's dependent on outcome. A Leicester player encroachment is only a foul if the penalty is legitimately scored. So in this instance it's after the foul of two touches by Mahrez and so the correct decision was made.

They would not be encroaching if it happened after the penalty was taken
