This Joelinton vs Hojbjerg incident was a controversial one, with this supposed foul essentially leading to a Newcastle free kick which in turn lead to the penalty from which the Magpies scored their equaliser. Spurs fans felt that Joelinton essentially barged into Spurs midfielder Hojbjerg to earn the free kick.
Joelinton Hojbjerg foul incident 2020
Not only is the free kick not a free kick ? The handball was never a handball as played on by the ref, who lacked the integrity and backbone to stand by his original on field assessment.
Decisions like this can lose a Mgr his job and the lost two points could cost champions league football? No wonder Jose walked down the corridor before the end of the game! At least by not answering commentators questions about the incident, he knew he would get fined and made the point of sooner giving the money to charity….
Football officially died last night RIP
