Italian soccer for you. The lineman appears to be looking directly at the ball inside the goal. Nothing to shield his line of vision.

 how the hell is lack of goal line technology a sign of italian soccer? where you sitting at your tv laughing about italian soccer when lampards shot crossed the line and no goal was given against germany in south africa? ever since calciopoli people try to clown italian football but its erroneous. i do believe they have 3 squads in the knockout round, 2 of which are currently sending arsenal and chelsea home. 

lol calm down bro, it was a dumb joke about match-fixing that apparently flew over your head. Milan is one of my favorite teams and I am def more a fan of Series A than EPL. I don't understand how the linesman misses that, when we have photographic evidence that nothing was in his line of sight. I don't have that sort of evidence on the Lampard goal. Chill out.

EDIT: This was actually disallowed:

Giggsy... 900... what an incredible stat.

Benayoun? Rosicky?

My eyes don't work so well this early, but not sure about that one...

Utd looked pretty good for the first 15-20 mins... then it was all Norwich. DDG made a few good saves, which was nice to see.

Seems like this North-London-derby's much more interesting...

 

[dlo13]

Wow. What a turnaround.

 

[big j 33]

What a comeback by Arseanl... a lot of time left, Tottenham needs to step up.

 

[dlo13]

Uh...now Spurs better try to not lose 6-2.

Theo was flying on that run.

[big j 33]

Spurs have just given up... damn

 

[dlo13]

Er...make that not lose 8-2.

i agree...
quite frankly they don't deserve to lose this one...

Welbeck wasteful with that header...could've wrapped up the points there...

 

[Sinner]

GIGGS!!! GIGGS!!! GIGGS!!!
EDIT ~ Glad they got the points, but I feel for NC... they played well and didn't deserve to get nothing out of that.  

 

[trunks206]

What. A. Game.

Amazing win.

It had to be Ryan Giggs.On his 900th appearance for Man Utd he's popped up to score a 90th minute winner at Carrow Road.Fairy tale stuff.

EXCELLENT game from Arsenal 

I didn't know the Manchester United game was on a premium channel and I didn't feel like going back upstairs to watch it in my parents room but a win by ManU is always
