Probably. I don't think she's been too bad, but she's not been great. Distinctly average, I'd say.

[Michael]

Adrian is helping Liverpool hang on in these dying moments.

No, me as well, She has kept it flowing well, in fairness she has not had a lot to do as the game has been played in a good spirit from both sides.. 

[LFCMadLad]

Well we seem to lose on penalties quite a lot recently so well done Chelsea 

[The Artful Dodger]

Liverpool look very unfit. Not like a klopp side. 

[Machado]

Chelsea have done very well today no matter what happens.

Yeah not great but neither are some of the male refs. 

For all the talk about her just being a female ref before the game, it's not like she's drawn attention to herself for any bad shockers of a decision. 

Think she's handled it quite well and been as authoritative as she needed to be.

Yeah I don't think we'll win this.

[Mel81x+]

I don't think we're winning this now. Penalty shootouts are our kryptonite.

I think the people in charge of the VAR review should be shot though.

We always do at the start of a season because pre season under Klopp is brutal.

Its later in the season that our fitness levels show.

I think shes got small tits 

Unlike the lineswoman who has a right old pair 

[Michael]

Penalties are essentially a bit of a lottery, but I have a feeling that Kepa will be a hero in this shootout.

They should be congratulated 

[Inverted]

I think the ref has had an overall good game, but the rule for VAR in those situations is dumb imo. 

Saying it needs to be an obvious error, means you're asking "is it obviously NOT a penalty?". It's like having a trial and asking the accused person to prove they obviously didn't do it. 

The ref should just be able to say it's a potential penalty, ask to see VAR, and then decide for herself, looking at all angles and speeds.

Yee haw

If it's a draw after 5 pens just give it to the team who had the most shots I target. Thats what they do in cricket.
