If players can touch the ball more than once when taking a pen you can try all sorts of nonsense.

Surely the only argument people can have is that if it is an accident they can retake but that opens so many issues as it would need to be applied to everything including freekicks, goal kicks and allows people to game the system

Exactly. I don’t buy the “accident” argument either. The skill of penalties is executing a relatively simple skill under extreme pressure. If you fuck up, that’s your fault. No one thinks Terry should’ve been able to retake that CL final pen because he slipped over do they?

it's no different to the turf going under someone's standing foot and them skying it exactly

it's just a missed penalty

The penalty in question was clearly a slip so you not 'buying' the accident argument is irrelevant. The total inflexibility you are demonstrating is no different to awarding a penalty for every touch of the ball with the hand regardless of circumstance.

Not convinced he touched it twice at all.

Would they have used data from the ball, it has a deeley in it to detect when it's struck for the automated offside thing doesn't it?

Another game where if Arsenal had a proper striker, they'd be winning.

I concur.

I swear this ref is Real sympathetic. Not blatantly but those soft little tug backs and whatever will be given to Real Madrid but not arsenal.

Good first half tho

That’s one of the best free kicks I’ve ever seen, the power, the bend and how perfectly in the corner he put it.

I didn't realise he'd never scored from one before.
