Re: Today’s thread - Liverpool v Burnley

The USA network commentary is sure there should be a Liv foul in the build up, acting surprised the goal isn’t chocked off. I knew it wouldn’t be. They never will be. It’s just the facts. Now if we had scored that goal, it would have, and probably a card thrown in for fun.
