Great result paitence was the key in breaking them down. Listening to the match the commentary the pundits were praising the performance of match referee Simon Hooper personally I thought he was poor in fact very poor, whilst in this case it didn't impact the result he was glaringly inconsistent. In the first half Milenkovic pushes Tielemans in the box and he goes over so the argument was Tielemans made a meal over it and that's an argument to be had but in the second half Williams under pressure from Rogers falls over handles the ball in the box (any contact from Rogers is miniml) certainly less than the shove Milenkovic gave Tielemans and yet that's a foul! So either both are fouls or neither is, and it's that level of inconsistency that drives players, managers and fans mad.

A totally bizarre decision by a poor official and yet more evidence that officiating in this country is shockingly poor.

Taught the very same thing when Williams went down
