Arsenal vs Liverpool
Just interested on opinions about an incident late in the game. Núñez throws his arm in disbelief at Mr. Taylor as he did not award a foul for him. As the ball was now headed towards Arsenal's penalty area, the referee gives the free kick to Arsenal around centre circle area.
My understanding is that being dissent by action, should have been a IDFK and (compulsory or not? please confirm) and the referee should have had his arm raised as for Offside. Looked for that and did not see raised arm.
Just wondering if that was given much closer to Liverpool box area and would the referee give the advice to free kick taker that is indirect? As if not putting his arm up, the kicker might attempt to have a shot on target.
Do correct me if I'm wrong, not an issue. Just wanted to be sure if an incident like that would happen in one of my matches.
On the other hand, Alison had a 'mare, coming out like that for the 2-1 goal (Van Dyke's mistake too) and getting nutmegged for the 3 goal...
