    Dias pushes him to ground isn't it trying to get the ball off him or something.

    Ah so it was checked, grand so. Yeah it is in the background in highlights but no replay of the actual incident. If it was checked than nothing in it, in the background of highlights wasnt clear how much contact there was, could have been clip round the ear or just grabbing the shirt - I fully trust VAR to have got it right!!

    It was checked. Though it was an instance where there was no viable replay, except for the one you see in the background of the goal, so couldn’t overrule the ref. There are some fan videos of the goal, where it looks probably like a red card, it’s a yellow card at the very least. But it’s probably one where our can’t overturn if every camera was watching Troy celebrate.

    Ogbene was acting the boll!x wonderfully by grabbing the ball and running off with it. Got pushed to the ground and I think O’Shea (and Scales maybe?) were straight over to Dias to have a go at him. Don’t think there was too much in it.

    Great to see our players playing mind games like that though and the Portuguese falling into the trap
