Look at how the PSG players immediately stopped appealing the moment the referee waved it away. Only Marquinhos approached the ref, and the bench stayed calm. Zero drama.
Now contrast that with Mikel Arteta and Arsenal. When Madueke pulled down Nuno Mendes and intentionally went down looking for a soft penalty, the Arsenal players threw a collective tantrum on the pitch. Arteta rallied his entire bench, screaming at the officials for almost a minute and nearly interrupting the game.
That’s the exact brand of tactical tantrum he throws in the PL to bully weak English referees who completely lack authority.
What makes Arteta truly embarrassing is his shameless desperation. Later on, when Gyokeres’ shot got deflected for a corner, Arteta was up in the fourth official's face demanding a handball penalty. Then we saw the replay, and the ball wasn't even close to a PSG player's arm.
He’s a certified embarrassment to the beautiful game.
🚨❌🗣️ #NOT TALKING — Rory McIlroy declined media requests once again following his 1st round +4, 74 at the U.S. Open on Thursday. McIlroy has made it clear recently that he feels no obligation to speak if he doesn’t want to. @TrackingRory
What are your thoughts on this?
Wow. A snowman from Rory McIlroy. The ocho!
Rory has one of his worst rounds of his career at the Canadian Open.
When you shoot an 88 this weekend, don’t snap your clubs and yell cuss words. Golf is hard.
Look, it’s extremely disappointing that what should’ve been a 67 ended up being a 72. But he’s swinging the best I’ve seen in ages and looks really confident. Accept and move on.
I will be on the grounds at Augusta National for his Friday 65. Goodnight https://t.co/Zh7AkL2AfG
