RED | Yaya | NC | When Mata confronts Yaya with his behaviour he gets another slap at the back of his head. Again Yaya can stay on the field. Mata is an honest boy and doesn’t fall to the floor like some Englishman did this season |

Lots of talking points. The not given penalty for City. A clear one for me. And after that I had the feeling that he started compensating a bit in favour of City to make up for his mistake. Never a good idea for a ref.
The fact that Yaya Toure made it on the pitch till the final whistle was amazing. His kick against the thigh of Mata when on the ground was a red card. After that a slap when Mata told him he didn’t like it at all. I wonder if there has been some bad blood between them from in Spain? It could be that the ref didn’t see it but I really wonder why the Fa didn’t take any action on this and banned him after the game. Kicking an opponent with the ball nowhere to be seen near is a red card. No excuses for this.
Mereiles also should have had his marching orders and so should Kompany. Both with 2 yellow cards.
The penalty for Chelsea was justified. Lescott came in with his arms raised and away from his body to make a block on the ball. The ref had in my opinion no other option but to give a penalty.
So a rather low score for the ref in a difficult game.
