00:00Yeah, we've watched it back. I don't think there was too much contact with the goalkeeper.
00:03I think he's gone for the ball and missed it, and obviously I think it's Tom Cannon around the goalkeeper.
00:08He's misjudged the flight of the ball and said he's got the goal,
00:12and then obviously they've seen something and made that decision.
00:15It came at the end of a game of which there were lots of contentious decisions,
00:20so the decision to award Southampton a penalty in the first place, yes, and Adam Armstrong missed it,
00:27but in the build-up, what was your perspective?
00:29Yeah, exactly the same, really. I just thought, I mean, don't get me wrong, it's a great first touch,
00:34and then commits Koops. I think Koops is pulling out, and he just puts his legs into him like any experienced striker does,
00:41and then it's up to the referee to make the decision.
00:43We don't think it's a penalty, but he made the decision that it was definitely a penalty and kind of set the tone, really.
00:51And then Chris Wilder, the reason you're here, Chris Wilder, sent off.
00:55Well, why, I suppose? What were the incidents that led to that?
00:59Yeah, I think his frustration, really, with a lot of the decisions.
01:04And then as we're coming off, the ball was just there, and he's got to kick it against either the wall or in the dugout,
01:12and he just, like, put it into the stand. Yeah, so, yeah, obviously disappointed and, like, the first to go say sorry to wherever it landed, so, yeah.
01:22They were the sort of the big incidents, but there were lots of sort of smaller ones, weren't there?
01:28Benmi's challenge, Shayog Benet's shove in the back that the referee and the refereeing team just didn't seem to spot.
01:36I think that's the frustration, really, that everybody in the ground sees it, and the ones that really matter don't see it.
01:45So, yeah, it was a disappointing night, and we can say, yeah, the officials didn't really help us,
01:52but, you know, at the end of the day, you know, we've got to defend those guys.
01:56We've got to defend better.
01:57But I thought, on the whole, it was a positive performance, just a disappointing result.
02:01We've got to defend those guys.
