Pom Michael Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 When the last substitute was inserted (in extra time) I was thinking why waste the time? Then the announcer said it was probably so that the ref would have to add an additional 30 seconds - so it really did make sense and a good call by SAF. I'm sure Michael Owen is still buzzing too - good for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
163 Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 What r u all going over top about beating city ,their best players weren't even playing.Thought Liverpool were your big rivals??????????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devils reject Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 Sure Liverpool are our big rivals, past present and future. This year the derby had that bit of extra spice due to the mouthing off by Tevez, Hughes etc. The new petro dollars, the huge Tevez billboard and the deluded Citeh fans didn't help either. Don't think I've looked forward to a derby as much as this one for a long time. Red bragging rights in Manchester today.(or business as usual, take your pick) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Munchmaster Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 ....Citeh fans and all ABU's will be moaning about the extra 2 minutes added but who gives a feck. .... I'm sure they will. So what was the justification for 7 minutes extra time instead of the 4 minutes that was intimated at the end of regular time? Yes, there was a substitution, that's 30 seconds.

[/quote'] From re-winding the Match, Craig Bellamy scored City's 3rd on 89:55. The game does not restart until 91:01. One minute and six seconds have been wasted and will be added onto the original four minutes of added time, taking it to at least 95:06. Michael Carrick was brought on to replace Anderson. All substitutions add 30 seconds onto added time, taking it to 95: 36 Owen scored the winner on 95:28, meaning the game was still 8 seconds within added time.

devils reject Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 Where did the initial 4 minutes come from.Not one trainer was on the pitch? 4 goals @ 30 sec celebrations = 2 min 3 subs @ 30 sec = 1 1/2 min Add 30 sec for time wasting etc... Comes to 4 minutes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
163 Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 So you've just made the time wasting and added on a extra 30 seconds.,City were chasing the game in normal time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devils reject Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 Don't know what your point is. What does it matter who wasted time, the ref added the goals, subs and added another 30 seconds to make it 4 minutes. Don't know about you, but I've never seen a 4th official raise a board saying 3 1/2 minutes of added time before. Getting rather bored with this now.
