Great game for refereeing, three rare occurrences!
Yellow card for Walker, re-entering field of play without referee permission after leaving for injury.
Yellow card for Edison for time wasting in 37th minute. Brilliant set up by Taylor, warned captain, text book.
Edison wipes out Nketiah after he gets shot away, penalty. (No second yellow).
Great half from Taylor.

Well I am fuming at 2 absolute outliers of decisions. You want to book ederson for time wasting? OK, don't choose today to get tough after 30 mins, seen hours wasted at city this year without issue. The pen...nah...never...not a single person expected it or wanted it. Strange decision...never seen anything like that given
Clear penalty, excellent decision, where the ball goes after is irrelevant. The fact nobody expected show the players doesn’t know the laws of the game.
No second yellow also an excellent decision. Taylor has been excellent

Taylor had just warned Gundogan about the team wasting time. Ederson then spends an age taking the kick only to then leave it for a defender, that is a red flag to any referee and I would absolutely be getting the yellow out there.
The penalty is clear, he's so late and the contact is so heavy I'm not sure he had a lot of choice.
Zero issue with the time wasting booking in principle, but you can’t just give it in 1 game. For years and years I’ve watched teams waste time at the Etihad from minute 1 and all that happens is a few token warnings followed by an 89th minute booking for the keeper.
Same for the penalty. They should be given more, but if this is in isolation then it’s poor.
If this is the start of a trend, great, but if not City will (rightly) be angry about it.

This is what im trying to get at. I’m expecting the change of direction at PGMOL to make this more commonplace.
