Wasn't Sergios goal at Stoke that was ruled out not dissimilar? Off his foot and on to his hand, he didn't mean to do it
I remember Micah getting red-carded and a penalty being awarded against us, away at Chelsea in our Sergio title winning season, when he slid in to block a shot and the ball bounced up from his foot to strike his hand.
It wasn't intentional and he couldn't do anything to stop the ball hitting his hand, but the referee obviously thought otherwise.
Are you sure you're not mixing up your games?
Micah conceded a penalty against Liverpool in the league cup semi that year. Shot was hit, he slid to block, ball hit his thigh and then his hand and Dowd gave the pen.
I think Lescott conceded a penalty against Chelsea that year but iirc he did have his arms raised when he went to block a shot not that the penalty would've been given at the other end if say Terry had done the same thing.
That's the one and I now stand duly corrected. Thanks for putting me right.
I could have sworn it was away Chelsea because we were gigging at a local pub and the game was on the TV in the snooker room. I kept sneaking in there to see how City were doing.
I suppose time, old age and fading memory are now conspiring to make a fool of me.
Apologies and thanks again.
