Liverpool at the death
You’ve got Gomez and Fabinho shooting from outside the box, Trent blazing in cross after cross nowhere near any actual red shirts and the team waiting to concede before trying to actually force the game and show any interest in trying to force the game.

F**k it though. Let’s win them every week in the 98th minute. We aren’t looking good but at least it was kind of fun viewing today.

Commiserations to Newcastle. At least they can ride the bus home wondering if all their faking injuries was the reason the ref added so much time on.

The fourth official raises his board, in this instance 5 minutes were displayed. Note that this is a minimum of 5 minutes. I rewatched injury time in this game and used a secondary stopwatch to monitor the “injuries” in injury time. There was one major incident after injury time was announced where approximately 1 minute and 35 seconds needed to be re-added. After deducting this time from the live clock, Salah’s blocked shot came at approx 5.07 into injury time (see the note above on minimum of 5 minutes). Typically referees very rarely blow full time after awarding a corner, especially with the game in the balance. The goal came after approx 5.35 into injury time (still noting the minimum of 5 minutes allowance). Essentially the game was over following the restart and the referee blew the final whistle.

Another point that I would like to make is that Jordan…
