   Impossible for the referees to be 100 % sure. Send it to Platini the ancient twat, he has the keys to solve this embarrassment. RVP should have put the game to bed but had a Torres moment of his own…

All d same, we got our three points but SAF should work on our defence b4 d manchester derby.And most important of it al, all utd faithfuls need 2 be seeing our No1 keeper in d post.

   Cricket, Tennis, all the sports out there use technology to be fair and avoid undue pressure on the referees. When it comes to football, the people who matter hardly give a rat’s shit about adopting technology. No wonder football referees are among the most loathed when compared to any other sport.

   We had plenty of decisions going with us this season, so i dont see why anyone would be so upset about this.

    impossible for any officials to see that. well this is football. still happy with 3 points. even if manu drawed or lost as a result, is a tough call, and i wont be so upset with it. still, credit to the defender trying his best to prevent the goal

    Just shows how badly they need this technology, pity it still has to wait till next season.

    Don’t need technology for that one.
    If the defender is in the net, then the ball must be in the net.
    Poor decision from the linesman.

    Let’s go on about this goal for 10 years like Spurs fans. Obviously this is the epitome of injustice.

    @diego – it was nowhere near a Torres moment, watch the replay, rvp had to move quick to snatch the ball from the keeper so his touch away from the keeper was heavy, ten by the time he reached the ball the angle was tight and the keeper had it covered. Rvp wasn’t facing goal, Torres was. Maybe if rvp hadn’t tried to smash it in and took his time he would have beaten him. It wasn’t as bad as it looked live anyway.

    Yes, we could say he should have placed it in the empty part of the net but it did go in so you can’t call it a miss

    There was a United fan on ESPN who commented that video technology for offside calls are more important then goal-line technology.
