“Everyone who watched the game will feel disappointed. The referee first said it was a foul and then confirmed it in the VAR room. The referee is unbelievable and funny. It’s hard to accept. A similar thing happened to us in the semi-final[oftheFACupagainstManchesterCity)twoweeksagoTherewasahandballnopenaltywasawardedforusnorwastherefereecheckingitIthurtsitdamagestheimageofEnglishfootballandIdon’tthinkeventheplayersofVillaunderstandwhythegoalwasdisallowedsaid Pochettino, then continued: “They said it was a foul, and if we look at exactly what happened and if every situation like this was characterized by a foul, we wouldn’t have finished the game with 11 players. Decisions like this destroy the game.”

Finally, he looked back Poketino and to your team’s game.

“The game was very good, although it is true that we conceded goals easily in the first half. It is not easy to play against Villa, a team that is among the top four in the table. I think that what we expected happened and that we had a good chance against quality team. We have to move on, and the headlines in the newspapers will be that they canceled our goal.” concluded the Argentine.
