Final Score 2-1

Final Score 2-1

WTF?  So Old's goal counted then?

Looks that way

make up ur mind knob end ref

Well he blew the whistle before the goal went in but it was handball penalty before so i have no idea

http://www.a-league.com.au/Scoreboard_HAL/0000780053/scoreboard.html says 2-0, but the match report says 2-1. 

wierd, Total football show reckons that Tony P confirmed 2-1


perhaps the ref blew for a pen - then played advantage, which surely can't be done once the ref has blown

i'll take the goal for goal diff later in the season, but i'd rather have ref who knew the rules and applied them

actually i'd almost rather not have the goal -the whole thing appears at this stage like a kids park game, were the kids who argue the loudest on they way home for tea get an extra goal

perhaps it'll make more sense in the morning

a strange weekend for football

This is ridiculous.  This report on Stuff says the score was 2-1

Sorry, already posted this on another thread, but the commentators at the CCM v Roar game said that the goal was officially allowed.

lets just call it 2 - 2 and see if they notice

I have just recieved two releases in the last 10 minutes from the Phoenix media manager - the first said 2-0; the second was an amended version and said 2-1, so that suggests almost definitely that it was 2-1.

Aren't they obliged to restart after a goal though ?

Mickey Mouse officiating of the A-League continues.

So another 93rd minute goal meaningless goal. Great. Who actually got the final touch?

does it matter? we lost.

LOL Like it that now sounds much better.

Anyone notice that the report said we're 'Melbourne Victory'?

makes me feel a bit better, nothing to whinge about now though damn it

cheers for that OOE, you out the first smile on my face since the end of the game

Yup. They really ballsed this one up.

Pretty sure they they don't have to re-start if the time's up, but our refs may correct me on this if I'm wrong.

Goodness me !! is there any more good news out there??

The final whistle definitely went before the ball went in, and when the Phoenix players were arguing with the ref he held up two hands, one hand had two fingers held up and the other had no fingers held up, so I think the ref will be quite suprised aswell.

The AB's game just went to the IRB and we have been awarded the win.

from the TAB as of 10.29 pm

Quickly cash in your bet if you picked 2-0.  See these random calls do have a massive effect.

It seems that 2-1 is the official score, that's what's posted on the A-league website right now.

But I bet 5 million on a 2-0 Jets win!

Correct you don't. However....

Team A (lets say Liverpool) vs Team B (Man U is convenient) are playing in a trophy final (is FA Cup ok?) Scores tied 1-1 and the 4th official shows on his board 3 minutes to go/time added on what ever.

Liverpool score to make it 2-1 and play has continued 3mins 20secs over the 90mins running time. The referee blows for the goal (which referees no longer are supposed to do on obvious goals) and 2 seconds later blows for full time.

What do you think would happen next? Can you say rioting????

As referee is sole judge of time and the 3 mins is a minimum indication only, not a definitive one, to save your backside, let play restart and on maybe the 2nd touch, blow it up.

I thought the time the 4th official held up was the maximum, not minimum.

No, the time shown on the board has to be the minimum extra time allowed. Browner_2007-10-15 17:18:27

So, if our lads sneak back on to the EnergyAustralia stadium tomorrow and smack the ball into the net at the right end, does that mean we get a point? Hell, we could do it twice and get all three...

Wouldn't work. Williams would still find a way to f**k it up

Absolutely pathetic ref.
People, players, commentators and everyone should no when a goal is scored.
Hopefully that bald grub will get suspeneded for the elbow on George, since it was not "dealt" with in the game.

Wont happen. They discussed it and took no action. It was viewed by the match officials....

That's farken unbelievable. What do you have to do to get suspended in this league, pull a gun and shoot someone?

Farken hell.

Or play for us.
