    Poor Alex Iwobi had a proper 'mare, didn't he? Tired, perhaps.
    The first penalty was worse. Mustafi lunging in like that. Ridiculous scenes. Xhaka did ok. But, he’s no fullback. There was always going to be a moment when Zaha ran at him inside the box, and it was never going to end well for us.

    First one should never have happened. Pretty sure Holding was fouled in the play leading up to it.

    Ref liked to see Torreira being kicked about.

    It didn't help his cause when Zaha enacted a comedy leap that resembled a horse getting taken out at Hickstead.
